Election Year Vote Buying Scheme #149.
More likely 15 million parents will be getting a new Iphone 15 or big screen TV....
TAX CREDITS??? BS!!!
90% of these so-called tax CREDITS go to ADULTS who don’t even try to work, pay no income taxes at all and use the money for their own enjoyment. It’s merely an additional government stipend to go along with many others they receive.
The other 10% goes to people who need it and to whom we should extend a helping hand in some other way.
Hooray! More handouts. I’ll cheerfully be paying the bill
This bill has succeeded already.
After all, it gave NBC the opportunity to praise Ron Wyden (Kleptomaniac-OR) and make it look like he is fighting the Pubbies.
TV airtime is good airtime.
The bill? Much ado about nothing.
I do predict an increase in the price of drugs as dealers realize that these folks have another few hundred to spend.
And if a few hundred dollars can raise 15 million “children” out of poverty, then the statistics were flawed to start.
In exchange for the handout to low income workers, democrats have agreed to reinstate certain corporate deductions for interest expense and research and development costs and funding will come from unspent COVID money that was earmarked for companies to help retain employees.
I seriously doubt this passes the Senate especially considering we are racing just to keep government open
Considering that most of the children now being born in the US do not even have American* parents - this was, yet another, TOTAL SELLOUT by the GOP.
*as in non-welfare, non-immigrant parents
THIS IS OUTRIGHT DISCRIMINATION AGAINST THOSE WHO DO NOT HAVE CHILDREN.
3 million more children would be made less poor as their incomes rise closer to the poverty line.”
but it sounds good.
More ‘tax reimbursements’ for people that don’t pay taxes ?
What we really need is reducing regulations. Give freedom. Trump is good at that.
But we must remember with freedom, comes responsibilities. That has to become part of our culture again.
You want to expand business hiring?
Eliminate the new IRS regulations that force businesses to amortize software development costs over 5 years, instead of expensing them.
While you’re at it, allow businesses to expense a lot of other things that they have to amortize.
