Something I find funny

[RB TexLa]

People with children get to use a higher deduction and pay less taxes, and now after paying less than a childfree couple or individual with the same income, they are also getting more on the stimulus check. Guess some people truly are a little more equal than everyone else.

Who benefits from producing and training the next generation of citizens?

What the hell have you done for your country lately?

3. I impregnated my wife not once but twice!

Deductions upon deductions! Now I can hardly keep track of our myriad financial windfalls. It's pure gold, baby, and nothing but profit from suckling at Uncle Sam's teat (to mix a pair of lucrative metaphors).

4. Try raising a couple of kids sometime.

Go ahead and feed and clothe and house and educate and provide medical care for them and then come back and tell us all about how much better off you are financially than someone making the same money who has no children.

Sheesh! Seems some people can always find something to be dissatisfied about.

6. Hey, I'm a single parent and I'm not getting anything.

Yes, it's an income-based exclusion, but not all people with children....costly children... are getting a break.

8. 1, i'm not getting a check and 2, i'd give up the deduction in a heartbeat.

i have one kid and there are plenty of people with and without children that could that money wat more than me.
