No, I'm talking income tax and unless the kid has a job and payroll taxes are being deducted from his check, he wouldn't be liable.
AFAIK The progressive tax rates currently in use has nothing to do with lower wage earners having zero to little tax liability, it's the tax credits in place that are saving some from the 10% bracket ( was 15% before GWB). If you believe that an across the board tax will hinder lower wage earner than what is the income to start taxing people at? 25k, 30k, 40k?
The government WILL tax the poor, trust me. It may not always be out in the open like income taxes but lottery, sin taxes, proposed "fat" taxes, sales taxes, and VAT taxes are all designed to get money from the people who are able to slink past paying income taxes.
