That would be nice if the numbers were more accurate.
It doesn't equate the same. If the tax break to a "rich" person is $1000.00 then the same tax break to a "poor" or "under priviledged" person is a tiny, tiny fraction of that.
If it were $1,000.00 it wouldn't be a tax break it would be a gift.
Supply-side/Trickle-Down is not about gifts it is about reducing marginal rates.
I am all for you giving a "poor" person a gift of a $1,000.00
We just need to add a line to the 1040 that states "I want to give XXX dollars to the poor in addition to the taxes I am paying".
That gives me my tax break and it gives you the chance to give gifts. We both will feel better then.
/how many people would voluntarily increase their tax rate come April?
