Regarding 999
To put it simply..
If you take
A) the 47% that file income tax and dont pay taxes
B) all the folks working under the table
C) all the folks engaged in illegal trafficking
D) all the folks who get back 2000 to 6000 MORE than they paid (EIC)
E) all the wealthy that use loop holes and CPAs to pay low or NO taxes.
It sounds like an enormous loophole to me designed to favor some specific group of people.
Do not know about you, but I have had enough of this type of “income redistribution.”
