To be clear: this isn’t the “we stopped paying promised grant money” but is literally the federal government yanking money out of an NYC bank account.

        No, this is not true. For low and middle income earners it was a mixed result at best. Some paid more, some less. Do you know what wasn’t a mixed result? Corporate taxes being slashed in half, from an average of 23% to just 12%.

          The Democrats almost never reverse the Republican tax cuts because they actually like it even though they can’t say that out loud.

              The subject was due to the spending cut whether there should be tax refund or tax cut.

              I suppose you don’t have an answer why the Democrats never reverse the Republican tax cuts when they got into power. The only good answer is they like those tax cuts.
