The entire bill is a waste of tax money. Nobody has told us why we need this bill at all. It’s all about piggybacking secret agenda by Democrats that will ultimately make them more powerful, more money, and to keep them in office.
I need a refresher as to why kids earn one a tax credit at all.
I’d rather see teaching safe sex or abstinence altogether before tax dollars given for child credit. Self responsibility is lacking in our society. “If you’re willing to play, be willing to pay” should be the motto.
That assumes people making $50-70K annually really need it. How many of them a driving nicer cars than they can afford and living a lifestyle above their means?
Exactly. Until I see bread lines, no available jobs, and people giving up luxuries like cell phones, internet, tattoos, vehicles, etc., we do NOT need tax dollars given to help anyone. Take some personal responsibility and get a job. Get educated and pay for it through loans. Work 2 jobs if needed.
Everybody already gets a child tax credit. Stop the insanity. No need for another one on top of the one already in place. Those of us who pay the highest rate should get a tax credit for paying more than Moe
I think they may be trying to do a stand-alone bill for the Child credit, which to be honest, is something that has been on our tax returns and just got a bit higher last year.
I know, I have kids. Trump had it increased to double what it was. Funny, we never hear that from our joke of msm or the Democrats
Wow , I hope I can articulate this the way I want .
They have manipulated everyone in this country. Recently I read a lunatic on another message board argue that Jesus was a progressive and it’s wrong for anyone to accumulate wealth at the sufferage of the general populace. Once again, my responses were, 1.) Why don’t they accumulate their own wealth, 2.) Why is it my responsibility to make sure you can continue to waste my money and your life on alcohol and drugs? I think what this person, along with many other libtards, forgets is back then people were working as slaves and suffering. I don’t think today’s average welfare recipient is struggling because they’re being held down due to Roman slavery or because of lack of opportunities. I’d say it’s safe to say the vast majority of suffering is due to individual bad choices, to which of course, is not and should not be the responsibility of tax payers to rectify.
Well, the people like Jeff Bezos are able to hoodwink the tax system, why don't the average middle class get a chance to do the same with their kids? I don't understand the uproar over this. It's a tax credit that has been in our system for a long time, and was just recently increased. Does it help me? Nope. But I do know some people who do work (like you mentioned) and they do need this extra money, just to make life a little better for their families. Usually they use the extra money for a family vacation, or put it away for college, because unless 1) you are super wealthy or 2) super poor or 3) come from a divorced home or 4) are a foster kid, you are going to PAY OUT THE A$$ for college. The average middle class family gets **** on when it comes to college. That is a fact.
The difference is, people like Bezos create jobs. The poor do not create jobs. And trust me, I can’t stand Bezos due to his liberals ideas. My point is, in a free trade society, tax breaks keep jobs from going overseas and Americans losing jobs. Thus, more people become poor.
How does Jeff Bezos hoodwink the tax system? He employs 1.5 million people who pay taxes. He pays a shitload of personal income tax as well.
I mentioned that regarding Trump earlier. He doubled it. No fanfare from the msm though. Such hypocritical jackasses they are
The best thing would be a smaller government and decreased taxes. Government is too big now.
You have the wrong. Half of our budget is not military. Half or over half is tied to Medicaid and Medicare, and Social Security.
I'm not saying poor, I'm talking about your working middle class families that get **** on.
Jesus was no liberal. He was a carpenter. His disciples were fisherman and doctors. They all had jobs and none of them worked for the government. He threw tax collecters out of the temple on their ***. He was against abortion.
I wasn’t saying I agreed with the idiot lol. Robin Hood was probably the first liberal in theory since he was made up
You’re right, but it’s a great idea. After all, homeschooling your kids would be saving tax dollars by less need for public school teachers
Why are we giving what someone else earned to someone who did not earn it ? Trump doubled it & I was against that . I'm low middle class some years & middle, middle class others & my kids are adults now & they tax the mortal piss out of me if I work overtime, why should I pay for someone else's choices? Our politicians are the ones who put loopholes in for big donors. Dont cuss the players cuss the creators of the game .
Do/Have you paid in to Social Security? Do/Have you had health insurance? Car insurance?
