There really is a difference between a subsidy and lower taxes. Families are not mere behavior anymore than education is mere behavior.

Lower taxes for everyone is one thing. Lower taxes based on your status in life will get you a lot of deaf ears on FR.

Both are in the countries best interest.

This statement has been used over the years to justify a crippling number of government programs, entitlements, and special benefits, resulting in the confiscation of 40% of a household's income. THAT is NOT is our country's best interest.

Ohh and you are expected to subsidize education arent you?

Where in the constitution does it say I must pay for the education of others? If you cannot afford to educate your children, you should think twice about having them, rather than insist you have a claim on the income of others.

People cant afford their families BECAUSE of taxes!

Children have a right to life liberty and the pursuit of happiness for which they may not be able to attend to themselves being children. If assuring the education of children is not in the general welfare of the country then nothing is.

Funny how a uniform tax break for mothers is wrong but illegal immigrants going straight for welfare is ok and would be racist to complain about.
