Well, on the off chance that she pays for child care, she certainly hasn't gotten any breaks there. The child care credit has remained absolutely unchanged since 1981, the limits have not raised one iota.
No, I don't believe she deserves money for nothing, but at least she is working. We have no idea about the father of the children, maybe he's a bum. Paying people to breed is a bad idea for government whether its welfare or child tax credits.
"At least she is working"? Since when has the responsibility for taking care of self gone by the wayside? I worked from my early teens until my retirement, and I don't see one person better than the other. I'm tired of taking care of other folks children, to include paying outrageous property tax to send their kids to school. Time for some serious reform.
Currently, I have serious illness, that is proving to be quite expensive. Now, if I had Medicaid, I could keep my money--as is, I pay as long as I can, then they take my home and other assets. Well, I guess I'm really at fault, since I worked so many years, and didn't have a passel of kids I couldn't take care of, so I have a home, retirement income, and ask no one for anything.
No ---she isn't at least working ---she quit working to be a stay at home mom, it looks like she doesn't have income from working but wants her "fair share" of the tax refund.
It's sad to see that even Republicans are considering giving those who didn't pay tax in the first place some free money. This isn't a poor working woman --- and I wonder how many of the fathers ever paid their child support.
