It's meaningless to me. My children are grown, I won't see any benefit whatsoever. Just more vaporware from politicians, and an excuse to give money to people who don't pay taxes.

FINE PRINT
       The president can also take comfort in that the scaled-down package was written to open the door for continued tax cuts.
       Some of the bill’s cuts in personal income taxes would end after 2004 and the dividend and capital gains reductions would end after 2008 — with levies then reverting to higher levels.
       Politicians of both parties consider that unlikely to occur because accusations would fly about a tax increase.
       “I certainly intend to enhance these improvements in coming years,” said Senate Finance Committee Chairman Charles Grassley, R-Iowa.
       The liberal Center on Budget and Policy Priorities estimated that if the tax bill’s elements were left intact for the entire decade, its price tag would be at least $800 billion.
