Actually, based on additional estimates I have seen, albeit from conservative/libertarian groups like Heritage, it may lead to the loss of over 1,000,000 jobs in the US.
Moreover, actual net costs for households may be as high as $1,600 based on the Washington Post article.
I’m sure the estimates from proponents, however, are right on target. The government never underestimates the costs of any program, right?
Besides what is $175 to a working class family in CA who is fighting foreclosure and a possible job loss? So does the left ever think this stuff adds up? Loss of a state child exemption here, $175 there, a car tax, there, maybe a national value added tax, too. After a while, we are talking about real money and then, suddenly, every state turns into California.
