People have lost the ability to make the distinction between “taking less from someone” and “giving someone something”. Food stamps is giving someone something. A deduction of any kind is taking less from someone. These days people, whether they realize it or not, act as if the government has a natural right to everything you produce. And anytime the government takes less it’s welfare. If the government takes 50% but offers a rebate or a deduction to reduce the rake to 30% people are acting as if you should grateful! As if that were a handout! Suffice to say I disagree with this type of thinking.
