[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous] Making people stick their hands out for earned income tax credits, food stamps and Medicaid is not nearly as satisfying as earning enough to support your own family. And who pays for all of the previously mentioned benefits? The middle class! Everything continues to go to the rich - woo hoo for that small percentage of our country. I’m sure they need all the extra money because ... why?[/quote] If MoCo added an EITc, it would be on top of the existing earned income tax credit already handled as the federal and state level. So there's no more effort involved on behalf of the recipient -- it would just mean they get a larger credit every year, on their taxes they are filing anyway, because they earn money. I'm not aware of any tax break given in MoCo specifically to the rich. They have raised property taxes and added other taxes, but those don't benefit the rich specfically -- it's not good for them either.[/quote]
