Nothing’s doled OUT at all.
The gov’t collects “x” amount of dollars. They set the tax rate at “y”. Then they subtract deductions and credits, we’ll call that “z”.
(x x y)-z
This gives you the money the gov’t has to spend. If you lower “z” or in a perfect world remove “z” altogether you can lower “y” and come out with the same amount.
Then the gov’t multiplies this by atleast 2 and then cries they have to raise “y” because we are in debt. Its for the wemmin and chillin you know and spot too of couse.
