How Has The New Tax Legislation Impact You?

I Had a visit with my long time Tax professional, AKA my Aunt who is also a corporate accountant for Halliburton.

She informed me that my tax rate will remain basically the same.
I don't mind paying more in taxes as I am a bit of a socialist who support programs for Kids and the Elderly.I guess its the Canadian in me!

I do have an issue with being penalized and paying more in taxes for being single with no dependents.

People get pissed when I say this but having Kids is a decision which can create Debt. I equate having a kid to making any large purchase that creates debt. With that being said, why is a child Tax credit available? Why isnt there a Tax credit for people without Kids?

What are your Thoughts...

I have no problem paying for others children. It takes a village. I am more pissed I'm paying for corporate welfare, the industrial war machine and our prison complex of profiting off of slave labour. Please tax me for the benefit of my fellow citizen even if some of those citizens could do more for themselves, that's just a drop in the bucket to the tax money given to the 1%.

I just recently stumbled upon you, @Barbarabkind. I really like how you worded your response to this question - and am going to “borrow” it for my future political responses like this one. Thanks for expressing yourself!

I will be happy when they start taxing the business of churches and when the creeps like Joel Osteen and the rest of them pay taxes. Im in Canada, we pay pretty high taxes here, liquor is taxed big time as well as pretty much everything else. I have to work real hard to support all the deadbeats that live off the government tit.

Not gonna happen

Sadly

I pay a little less now, but it'll end up costing me more in the long run.

I don't mind the kid thing as much but losing the interest on my student loans pissed me off the first time it happened. I'm penalized because I used the education I borrowed to pay for to establish a successful career. Not having to support a child is priceless.

I agree!! Why not be rewarded for not having burdens on the public system?

I have no problem with anyone having children.

The government is trying to incentivise family units. That is why married couples with kids are put to the front of the line to the cash cow. Look at welfare queens, they are only having kids because they are irresponsible and don't want to contribute to society. I know one single mom who has 6 kids and never worked a day in her life. She spends that government money on herself and her drug habit. She's now on heroin, drinks smokes and is pregnant with #7. This has to stop.

I would suggest you look into the amount of money given to corporations. Bitch about them first. It's easy and feels good to criticise those that are down and of a lower class so you feel big. That's what "they" want.
