The whole “prebate” thing to me doesn’t sound right somehow. If I make 20K$ and say the “poverty line” is 20K$, then they are going to pay me and everyone else in the country a prebate of 4600$?

That is why we need a LIVING prebate of the full 20k.

Exactly. But what's your problem with that? It means you pay zero in taxes.
