Very true, but the "theoretical" people with no deductions and no credits are pretty rare. The family in my previous example would pay a total of about 15% out of their paychecks if they're doing their W4 correctly.

I'm talking about TOTAL payroll taxes for that couple (federal, FICA, and state), yes. They have to do their W4s correctly, though. Otherwise it will be higher and they'll have to wait to get a big refund when they file.
