"Sources even told Fox News that Trump would like to eventually make the payroll tax cut permanent and fund Social Security, Medicare and unemployment insurance from general revenues — moves that could further swell the deficit. Democrats have pushed back on these calls as lawmakers craft new legislation."
Those with jobs don't need the relief...it needs to go to those without jobs during the pandemic to pay rent and buy food. Many on the right in the senate don't want a payroll tax cut. The truth is CRD is showing his greed wanting a payroll tax cut. Cuts should go to those with incomes of $40,000 or less or a family at $75,000 or less. Payroll cut sure doesn't help retirees or unemployed who need it the most. It only helps those who are employed. That's pure greed.
The fact is, I won't qualify for any relief but I feel for those in need. Those business owners who received PPP money certainly weren't too concerned for the deficit.
Money Bags Martini and Cashman CRD don't need relief.
And no, I don't like deficits. When the economy impoves, and it will, raise taxes and adjust corporate taxes until we pay down the deficit incurred during the pendemic. I have no issue wth a deficit during this current slump...that is as it should be.
