Less so than some web site owned by some random person. 
 
In the US, poor people pay no to almost no taxes. They _can't_ get a tax cut without being given tax money back.

 Most media commentators are random people with their own beliefs. 
 
And do do you guys have sales tax over there? How bout petrol tax? Excise taxes on smokes and alcohol? Stamp duty on the purchase of houses? No taxes at all based on consumption? 
 
Askan Yup . . . those are other taxes people conveniently forget about - some states even have a sales tax in California it is 7.5% - that's like a VAT.
