and will establish a new tax credit that is worth $4,000 a year in exchange for 100 hours of public service a year."

$40/hour for a high school kid? Is he freakin' joking or is he really that stupid and corrupt?

Just another Liberal government scam to hand a bunch of lazy, surly, losers jobs they can't handle and over pay them for it. Lots and lots of bureaucracy which will cost more to administer than the program is worth.

By the way, ‘The “Mr. I Hate America” President’ can kiss my a$# with his plans for MY time and effort... because thanks to BS Liberal give away’s already in place in this country, I have to work TWO JOBS as it is just to get along!!!

The tax credit pays them ZERO dollars per hour.

At the 30 percent it would reduce taxable income by 4k, saving them about $1,200.00.

I think that’s about $12.00 per hour. But it’s their own money and if they work lf summer for free they have no income.

So the tax beark is meaningless or as some say, smoke and mirrors.

It sounds more like "avoiding a $40/hour penalty" rather than getting paid $40/hour.

Even more insideous.
