Um... why should a family of four, making $48,000 on which a couple has to support two kids, have to pay taxes, but a 70-year-old woman with the same yearly income not have to pay taxes?
I can see the argument for reducing the tax burden on the middle-lower middle class, but reducing it just for seniors (who now have prescription drug coverage as well as traditional Medicare, while many children go uninsured) is such an obvious sop to the senior citizen vote that I'm disgusted.
