[QUOTE="Maui, post: 2671986, member: 45037"] As it stands right now married couples with 2 kids pay no taxes after the EITC (best thing Reagan did to combat poverty)if the make less than about 50k. Larger families would see a tax increase under Trump's plan as personal exemptions would be eliminated. Similar story for single parents with middle incomes (40-100K off the top of my head) as the head of household category would be eliminated and there would be no exemption for the children so taxes would increase. Obama reduced taxes for couples making less than 250k, but did not have massive cuts for wealthy high-income earners like Trump's plan. Middle incomes tend to spend the extra money. The wealthy just keep it. You do not need religion to teach respect. There is too much religion in many public schools now. I think religion should be taught at home. There is nothing stopping an individual from praying privately anywhere though. That is an intrinsic good. I'll agree with what I consider inappropriate dress. For school I prefer uniforms. [/QUOTE]
