Now could someone explain to me how they can have this income and pay nothing and maybe receive a tax credit?

That's real easy...it's all about children, the more you have the more breaks you get. Having 4 kids, some of which are going to college, a mortgage interest payment of 25K, and 401K investment account will do the trick.
