[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]An explainer from the NY Times: https://www.nytimes.com/2025/07/06/your-money/social-security-tax.html The BUB adds an additional $6,000/person deduction for tax filers 66+, phasing out beginning at $75,000/single filer ($150,000 per couple). Note that most Social Security recipients barely owe income tax as it is: "Under current law, an estimated 64 percent of beneficiaries did not owe taxes on their Social Security benefit." The new deduction expands the group of non-owers to about 88%. The new elder deduction only lasts til 2028, and, as usual, benefits middle-class baby boomers at the expense of Gen X, for whom Social Security will now run dry a year earlier. [/quote] It technically benefits Trump with the cynical "it lasts until I'm out of office" nonsense. This bill was done for the vanity of the orange moron.[/quote]
