Obama threatens to veto $440 billion tax deal

[Joe Republic]

Republicans "reward" their (white) working-class supporters by announcing that they would allow the Earned Income Tax Credit and the Child Tax Credit to expire. Why? Because of Obama's executive action over immigration, of course.

Petty, spiteful, etc.

I'm not sure what you're trying to say. The Child Tax Credit is middle class avarice, and the EITC is its current form is basically the same irrelevant love for people who make children they can't afford to raise.

We'd all be better off if those policies were eliminated or reformed, even if Obama gets blamed.

Good thing your party makes it so easy to abort all those unaffordable babies you're complaining about!
