Look, it just means that we've added those families making 10K to 26K to the welfare roles. When you discuss this simply refer to it as a welfare benefit for low income workers.

Question. To qualify, do you have to actually work to make your 20-30K a year or can you be on welfare?

Its not so bad, behaviourly, if it gets people on the work escalator.

lOOK,it is the lower and middle class of working people,who pay most of the interest rates in this country.The upper middle and upper class people usually has enough money to pay for most of their purchases therefore,they have more money to spend.Why should they be getting a tax break? Most lower class Americans makes 5.15 per hour,compared to say 50.000 yrly.upwards, where the lower income citizens have too pay three times the intrest rates, to have anything of value.Therefore putting more money into the econimy.So why shouldn't they get the tax break also? GET OVER IT
