Do permanent residents have to pay taxes? If they have a job that cuts the income for taxes (i.e. SS)?

That depends on a lot of factors. Filing status, dependents, credits etc. If say you're single, no dependents, not being claimed as a dependent by someone else, and have no credits or self employment income (1099s). For an '06 Federal return you could possibly have $8,450 in taxable income and not have any fed. income tax liability. Most states will tax you if you make less than that I'm afraid.

Anyone who earns money in the U.S. has to pay taxes on that money. Yeah I know many don't but they are paid under the table and in general make a lot less money becuase of that.

No. You pay tax on money you "earn" aka income: while in Canada. That means, if the money goes into the bank into a savings account - you will pay tax on the interest it "earns", not on the principle amount. It is assumed you paid tax on the principle amount in the country at their tax rate where it was earned.

Of course they do! With few exceptions, anyone who lives or works in the US pays US taxes.
