19. The child tax credit is good. The marrigage tax cut is bad.

It gives a break to people who not only don't need it, but are, in fact, deriving huge benefits from being married, both in terms of finances and in terms of preferred treatment by the gov't and the law (like, the tax free transfer of all assets on death of one spouse).

Also, I understant that it helps everyone, regardless of need. They should be giving poor single mothers and fathers tax cuts before they give them to super rich people.
