Bipartisan Subsidies


Recommended Posts

  • Gold Member

Child tax credit increase and indexed to inflation for poor and non tax paying parents and more subsidies for businesses at tax payers expense passed by both chambers.  Unfortunate that individuals will have to pay for this via taxation…. Errrrr I meant bipartisan US debt limit increase will pay for this.

Subsidies?  

The business breaks would revive some policies under the Trump tax cuts of 2017 that have since expired. They would allow full expensing for domestic research and development, restore the pre-2017 interest deduction, extend bonus depreciation and expand small-business expensing, the sources said.

Not in my book and by many definitions.   Subsidies are generally getting something from govt not keeping what you already earned by changes to the tax code.

Interesting.  I think many here would disagree with you that those that get to keep more of their own money rather than giving it to the gov via taxation is a subsidy.

I have the same belief as you in the fact that getting to keep more of one’s own money is not a subsidy

Generally you don't see a change in tax rates or depreciation rules called a subsidy.   Its a tax cut or increase.

Example of subsidy would be farmers getting paid to not plant acres.   

There are tax subsidies which aren't tied to actual income like ethanol blenders tax credit.   Getting paid for production no matter the profit/loss is a subsidy.

One huge difference is that you have to first work and make the money to keep more of it.  You really don't have to work to get a subsidy.

To get a non refundable credit or deductions you have to work hard enough and have enough income to get to keep more of your own money.  Many still call getting to keep more of your own money as a subsidy though….

So if you do/are a net payer in taxes and get to keep more of your own money is that a subsidy?

Subsidies incentivize behavior. Tax cuts are not subsidies.

So these tax cuts for business won’t incentivize behavior?  None of these items won’t incentivize business behavior?

“The deal includes expensing for research and experimental costs, restoration of an earlier interest deduction, an expansion of small-business expensing and an extension of bonus depreciation, according to a section-by-section summary released by the two tax-writing committees.”
