It suddenly occurred to me that I do not understand economics. At all. So maybe that's why I'm confused to hear Obama is proposing to increase tax credits. Now I am not against helping people who are struggling economically. But decreasing the amount of money going to the federal government when we have a skyrocketing deficit simply makes no sense to me. Granted it is to help families with children and people preparing or already in retirement. That's nice. At least the government is trying to relieve the right people, the ones really struggling in these times.
