Well, duh. I'm not questioning the math, I'm questioning the need for someone making a million dollars a year to get another $1650 credit on their taxes to help pay the cost of raising a child. You honestly don't see anything wrong with that? Really?
You should take your class warfare schtick back to North Korea, Comrade.
| Income level | Average Income | Percent of total US income | Percent of total US taxes paid |
|---|---|---|---|
| Lowest 20% | $15,700 | 3.30% | 2.00% |
| Second 20% | $31,900 | 6.90% | 5.10% |
| Middle 20% | $50,500 | 11.10% | 9.80% |
| Fourth 20% | $84,200 | 18.60% | 18.40% |
| Next 10% | $129,000 | 14.25% | 14.80% |
| Next 5% | $183,000 | 10.10% | 10.70% |
| Next 4% | $322,000 | 14.20% | 15.30% |
| Top 1% | $1,827,000 | 21.70% | 23.80% |
Note that the top 20% pay a disproportionate share of the taxes. You apparently think that the harder someone works the more of the fruits of his hard work should be taken away and given to others. How very Democrat of you. I think maybe you must have voted for Bernie. If not you should, because he represents your way of thinking a lot more than Trump.

- You cannot legislate the poor into prosperity by legislating the wealthy out of prosperity
- You cannot multiply wealth by dividing it
- The government cannot give to anybody anything that the government does not first take from someone else
My problem with you and people like you is that you do see something wrong with someone making more money getting a larger tax break. Like I said before - Bernie is your man.
