Gah! They’re pitching welfare payments as a tax cut.

It also preserves Obama’s signature tax cut _ a break for millions of lower and middle income taxpayers, including those who don’t earn enough to pay income taxes.

They cut the Obama tax plan from its original size to get the porkfest passed. It’s less than what he originally sought, but they kept the welfare payments - because there’s no other way to describe it.

These are people who are already not paying taxes and they’re getting refunds? That’s not a refund, but a welfare check.
