re: #362 brownbagj

Are these 98% all income tax payers? If not, 98% seems like an unfair number to claim. They will get a larger check back when they never paid income tax in the first place.

It’s the bottom 98% of income earners. The $250k joint/$200k single numbers that are being talked about. I don’t think you need repeated the long standing position of the Dems and admin that cuts to the the top 2% - those earning more than $250k/$200k should be allowed to expire.

Aren’t we nearing 50% of working Americans not paying an income tax?

I don’t know those numbers. I’m wondering how many of those are being bamboozled into thinking _they_ pay too much tax.
