And how are federal taxes any different? How is taking money away from someone at a rate of 35% while sending someone money they didn’t pay in taxes, an earned income tax credit, not redistributing wealth? In fact this tax plan is written to jettison only enough support to keep their power in Washington by choosing who will win and who will lose.
I totally agree. The Earned Income Credit is crazy and IS a total Redistribution of wealth.
The argument I set out was over ‘deductions’ trying to some of our money ‘back’.
The fact that the Federal Government itself is overtaxing us is another fact. Including it being used as Redistributions.
As far as this tax plan not giving enough of our money back, like Reagan said (paraphrasing) get the best you can and try later for better.
