About time we start helping families during this pandemic. My sister has 4 kids and has been a stay at home mom during covid, my brother in law has been superman making ends meet. Groceries alone for an average family can reach absurd levels, so it's good to see people like them get future assistance.

If we're just going to be giving out money, giving money to underprivileged families with kids is such a good way to do it

Makes more sense than throwing money at adults with college degrees

I'm in the hospital having a kid right now. But if they go by last years' taxes like they've been doing no bonus money for me :(

January babies are a mistake folks. Lost out on the tax credit too.

The government exists to help people who need it. I bet you're also a trumper who's anti abortion and BC.

As long as single, unmarried people get something pretty nice too I'm cool with it. Otherwise you need to fuck all the way off.

As a single and unmarried person living in a state with high taxes, I pay 26% in taxes on all of my earnings. Because I don't have kids and I'm not married, I barely get anything back on taxes. I got $300 back on earnings of $35,789 over the course of 2019 which was taxed for $9,989 combining for state and federal taxes.

Meanwhile some guy who is married with 4 kids, not really struggling, received pretty much gets all his taxes back because he's married with 4 kids. What the fuck kind of bullshit is it that people like me are stuck footing the bill for your kids public education and for you to have a road to drive on go fuck yourself entitled ass pricks

It's a trapezoid, as always, they're just increasing the maximum amount of the credit and the amount you can earn before it phases down

You dont lose anything. You just dont get anything.

If the government isnt going to give me a bonus for having a kid, what is the point?

Think of it as rewarding parents that have to listen to cringe child free peeps that use phrases like "Crotch goblin".

The big "fuck you, eat our entire assholes you piece of shit" message coming directly from the people drafting this. Telling childless couples they're second class citizens.

Yes just like kids cost quite a bit more than that, kind of like cars costing quite a bit more than the couple hundred dollars he was bitching about not getting.
