“Those at the very bottom of the income spectrum will benefit less.”

That’s because they don’t pay any taxes at all! What horrible journalism, I can’t even bother to report that people that pay no taxes at all will still pay no taxes at all.

It’s even worse than that, because people who pay no or low taxes get increase in tax CREDITS (in cash refunds).

Thanks but I’m way ahead of this like months ago and I don’t need CNN.

Try this one for estimating taxes due. It is usually within just a few percent of the total my CPA gets.

With the new tax plan did Trump increase the earned income credit? That would be so wrong!

AFAIK the child credit was increased, along with doubled personal deduction and lower tax brackets for all. Negotiations require give and take in politics. Unless we have a dictator running the country, that is the reality.

Yeah I knew about the standard deduction increasing and lower tax brackets. I didn’t know an expanded EIC was part of that. Or maybe I did and I blocked it out :-)

With a majority in the House and Senate there shouldn’t have had to be too much compromising. But since two-thirds of the Republicans should run as Democrats, I guess that was the case after all.
