"The draft language of the emergency coronavirus relief package includes a tax break for corporate meal expenses pushed by the White House and denounced by congressional Democrats -- Democrats recoiled at the proposal; it has also been denounced as ineffective by conservative tax experts. Democratic leaders agreed to the provision in exchange for Republicans agreeing to expand tax credits for low-income families and the working poor in the final package -- “Republicans are nickel-and-diming benefits for jobless workers, while at the same time pushing for tax breaks for three-martini power lunches. It’s unconscionable,” said Sen. Ron Wyden, D-Ore., the ranking Democrat on the Senate Finance Committee."

This was a brilliant move by Trump and it is unfairly being painted as a tax break that mostly benefits corporations when it's probably one of the most important tax policies ever passed on the behalf of the working class poor in American history...

So yea, we had to give up tax credits to low income folks who really don't matter in the scheme of things -- but if that is who Dems want to waste tax benefits on, so be it -- the most important thing is that we get the much needed "3-martini lunch" tax break passed for Real Americans...that should first and foremost ahead of any direct stimulus checks and any tax credits for working class peasants...

You're insane. But maybe you are only evil, and believe that greed is good, and poverty isn't so bad.
 
GOD BLESS AMERICA and thanks Republicans - You may have saved our Republic!

Watch out for the name Jeffrey Rosen....he will be under a lot of pressure to do something...and from what I know of him, he will...

Looks like your new thread got canned.
Yep, another nut. Donald can unleash a whole lotta crazy in the next 29 days!

29 days, 12 hours, 5 minutes, 6 seconds
until Wednesday, January 20, 2021 (Washington DC, District of Columbia time)

Poverty is an individual decision.

Isn't that like a black person asking another black person if they are racist? If you are po when there are jobs available for you to get, isn't that an individual decision? If you lose your job because of a silly flu virus, but there are plenty of jobs open in other areas you could get but don't, isn't that an individual decision? I am all for helping out people temporarily while they get back on their feet, but not if the goal is to never get back on their feet.

Awwww look at the whiners bonding isnt that cute?
 
The "three martini lunch" included in the newspaper story's headline provides clear indication on the attitude the paper wishes to push upon its readers. It leads me to believe I'm not getting all the facts and I wonder what crap the Democrats put in there? Not that I'm anti-Democrat, it is my desire for impartial reporting. What I find especially irksome, not that it applies to this article, are those click-bait headlines that make me wonder if the headline writer actually took note of facts contained in the article beneath it?

Just admit you have no idea what this tax break is or why there is bipartisan opposition to it among tax experts....

Yawn. Six alerts from you, and nothing of substance, nothing thoughtful and nothing thought provoking appeared.
