    On Monday, March 11, President Biden released his proposed budget for 2025, articulating the administration's priorities and detailing where they would seek to generate the revenue to pay for them.
    One of the most important features of the EITC (Earned Income Tax Credit) is that it is refundable. That means the taxpayer will receive the full amount of the credit, even if the amount is larger than their tax liability. For example, a taxpayer eligible for a $2,500 EITC who owes $1,000 in federal taxes will still receive a refund of $1,500.
    The budget proposal seeks to generate revenue by raising taxes on the wealthiest Americans to fund expansions of the Child Tax Credit, Earned Income Tax Credit, and Premium Tax Credit, among other spending priorities.

    ---
    How nice, work all year and Uncle Joe Biden wants to send you money when you file your income taxes, even if you made enough money to owe the IRS $1,000. Where will the money come from -- raising taxes on the wealthy. It's called income redistribution aka socialism aka rob the rich to pay the poor aka buying votes aka penalizing success. Uncle Joe Biden will even borrow the money from China if he has to as the USA spirals downward.

    It’s the Democrat way.

    Muslim extremists have hope for anti-Israel policies
    Blacks have hope for reparations.
    Illegals have hope for amnesty
    Pay off the unions
    Pay off the students
    Trans get unrestricted access to women
    Women get unrestricted access to killing their unborn babies
    Criminals get to keep on passing out the fentanyl and smash and grabbing whatever they want

    bam bam thank you ma’am watch all them votes roll in.

    Was it buying votes when trump was responsible for sending out stimulus checks right before an election? What about checks for hundreds of thousands to millions to business owners?

    Or is 1500 to students where you draw the line?

    Returning money to households to boost the economy after a pandemic is one thing. That helps everyone. It's another thing to pass tax laws that tax the successful people so that money can be given to the underachievers. That penalizes the successful and does no favor for the underachievers. This is plain to understand if you know anything about human nature.

    Talk about twisting a subject. That's like saying when someone needs money they can just write a check.

    I have never check any farmworkers' "papers". But you sound like an "ID checker" who travels around. However, as a kid I once worked on a farm one summer and the workers were all high school kids. They were all WASP.

    We cannot tax our way out of debt.
    We cannot tax our way out of debt.
    We cannot tax our way out of debt.
    We cannot tax our way out of debt.

    Biden's requested budget for 2025 is a whopping $7.3 TRILLION.
    It includes $5.5 TRILLION in tax hikes.

    Got that? Tax revenue in 2023 was $4.7 TRILLION.
    So biden is talking about more than doubling the taxes American pay.

    In 2023 the annual budget was $6.1 TRILLION.
    Biden's 2025 budget request includes a 20% increase in spending.

    • We should cut the budget for 2025 to under $5 TRILION.
    • Across the board, a 20-25% budget cut.
    • Social Security, Medicare, disability payments are exempted but administration budgets are also subject to the cuts.
    • After 2025 new expenditures will require that a dedicated revenue source be included. General revenue or existing taxes cannot be used; all of that money is already accounted for.
    • Any new revenue goes first to reducing the debt.
    • Balanced budgets must be submitted on time and passed.
    • Failure stops funding for all elected officials involved in the budget process until a budget is passed.

    I don’t understand why GOP worry about tax hike. Most of the Red state take federal aid. if anyone concern about tax hike should be Blue state DEMS who pays most of the tax.

    Well the plan is to replace all these MAGA with Latinos. So far DEMS plan is working. GA, AZ, NV, NM, CO, MI used to be RED . now they are blue. It’ just matter of time RED state no longer have anything to sell. May be moonshine to sell but , we liberals drink wine.

    Good chance it'll not stop with just MAGA. Careful it certainly will come round to bite even the democrats too..

    Thing is, latinos like to work, unlike their democrats sponsors, it's not gonna take long before they best them too :)
