Responsible ones just file according to the law in effect at the time, whether they approve of it or not. The point is, whether one approves or not, a $500 tax credit isn't remotely close to "no taxes on Social Security".Supsalemgr wrote: ↑Wed May 21, 2025 6:26 amIf this becomes part of the bill I'm sure you guys will return or refuse the $500 credit.
I'm opposed to income tax on Social Security because 1. it's a benefit you've earned and should be received in full; and 2. income tax on Social Security is just a circular process of the same government giving and taking and everybody's return being more complicated for no good; and 3. because I'd benefit from it.
On the other hand, I think it's really stupid to lament a deficit, go cutting valuable programs and at the same time refuse revenue.
I will take advantage of every opportunity to reduce my funding of the really stupid TACO Don agenda, including financing his tax cuts for voracious fatcats.
