But he gave them the fastest relief program in history by reducing the withholding immediately - now they get about $13 less taken out of their check every month.


And for the 40% of people who pay no taxes a payroll holiday would only mean that instead of paying zero in taxes they pay zero in taxes. To give a payroll holiday to the people who earn more would be a "tax break for the rich."


Yes many of his programs won't take effect for several years. By then the economy if it recovers will not be a concern but they programs will stay anyway. And if it does not return will justify keeping the programs.

Hungry for power and control? Isn't it clear that the democrats are happy with control of the house, the senate, the courts, the msm media, and the white house? They don't need to silence any opposition by restricting free speech. They don't need to send massive amounts of money to bribe their voting block. They don't need to rig the laws determining how unions get established. They don't need an "enemies list." What they do need is to find a way to raise the capital needed to fund socialism - and that will be done through carbon taxes. Which I would add are regressive in nature (hits the poor the hardest).
