1. Its still a bad deal compared to the previous "making work pay" credit
Those most in need of financial help make the least income, which in turn means they get the least benefit from this kind of tax cut because they dont pay much into it.

The "MWP" credit actually targeted those people, and gave them a huge rebate at tax time.

Now they are lucky to get a few dollars per week, which isnt enough to provide any assistance.
