“Please explain?”
Because those of us who don’t have any children end up getting taxed higher because you have kids. Their your kids, enjoy them... But everybody needs to pay the same rate based on income. I also object to the mortgage deduction, because it’s unequal.

I agree that everyone needs to pay the same. I think that should extend to people receiving benefits too. If everyone had skin in the game, we would not be electing idiots who spend like drunken sailors. I am fine with that.
The government tries to use incentives to control behavior and the government wants more children. More children = more taxpayers in the future. They offer a child tax credit and I take three of them.
Don’t worry though.... considering I pay over 6k a year into social security and I won’t see a dime of it in 22 years it’s a wash.
Why are you entitled to the fruits of my labor? Answer the question.
Is your answer that you have to pay more if I take the deduction?
Why is my money yours? Did you work for it? Are you telling me like some on this thread that it’s too bad it won’t be there for me but me and my children have to fund your retirement because politicians promised you?
Please explain to me where your failure to properly save and prepare for your own retirement is my problem?
