They don't make enough to pay federal income taxes, dumbass! They re likely exempt and get nothing withheld!
When you say “pay federal taxes, i’m assuming, you mean, correct me if i’m wrong, that you mean after filing a 1040.
No one getting paid low wages does. Yet they do have payroll taxes withheld. And they pay federal gasoline taxes. They pay federal excise taxes.
Payroll taxes? If you don't make enough money to have a tax obligation, guess how much they withhold? Nothing!
No, they don't pay federal gasolines taxes except when they buy gasoline, which is far less than the average American and I doubt they pay any excise taxes. Do you know anything about your typical illegal immigrants lifestyle?
