Federal Income Tax paid comes from the box on your W-2. If you have credits or deductions that total more than that amount when you file your 1040 then you are paying ZERO.
I want to have Social Security tax applied to all income from all sources for EVERYONE. I also want to see a 90th percentile deduction on Federal Income tax also based on all income from all sources. I want the greedsters to not only pay for my Social Security but to pay for operating the country and government they own and control.
I don't consider payroll tax to be in the same category as income tax.
Payroll tax in many ways, especially for lower income folks is actually more of an investment payment, for future specific long term benefits (medical insurance and payments in old age).
I've always thought lumping payroll tax with income tax was just a way for advocates to "muddy the water" concerning the tax fairness issues.

It's widely known and understood that the 53/47 numbers are referring exclusively to income tax.

I'm picturing a giant pitcher filled with an oversweetened, fruity children's drink... This pitcher walks and talks, and as it comes crashing through a wall of bricks made from foam, it's proclaiming, "Oh yeah!"
