Obviously will not be supporting this nor will I be supporting anything else that seeks to gut the New Great Society.



Would you like to elaborate on exactly how this guts anything?


I think his main concern is that these tax cuts will produce a gigantic deficit unless the entire act is repealed (or we raise taxes/cut spending elsewhere).



We need to cut spending elsewhere. That is up to us to find consensus on what those cuts should be.



This is why I recommended a change to the UBI threshold.

$53,413-$106,827 is considered "middle income." Would a change of the UBI threshold to $70,000 alleviate some concerns?

Indeed. I can get behind this.

Joseph Cao:
Good to hear!

Now if only someone would introduce the amendment that everyone apparently is fine with. :P
