The most striking proposals were for the elimination of medical debt for millions of Americans; the “first-ever” ban on price gouging for groceries and food; a cap on prescription drug costs; a $25,000 subsidy for first-time home buyers; and a child tax credit that would provide $6,000 per child to families for the first year of a baby’s life.
In Taiwan the government gives you something like 300usd a month until your child is 6. Even more if you have more than 1 kid.
This is how we take care of our citizens.
Canada has the child tax credit. I don’t have any kids so I’m not sure how much it is, but as a childless Canadian I approve.
Get with the program, USA. Building the middle class is your thing.
Uhh, you realize the US gives $2000 per child every year in a tax credit right?
Tax credit? Taiwan literally directly deposit it into your account each month, tax free. No waiting for the end of the year.
Also, the GDP in America doubles Taiwan and Taiwan gives double what the USA does.
I never said the US was better, but it does give money for kids.
That’s true. It’s something I guess.
Yes but when America did that, and established the ol American Dream, tax rates on the wealthy were 90% and corporations paid 50%.
You want to Make America Great Again? ignoring that we all do, there’s no golden age without those tax rates. That’s how America did it before
Gotta do it again. Down with Citizen United.
