To continue with the example, the parents in the first family found a good day care for their kids. They spend $16,000, if we use Olivia's numbers, for both kids, so if you simply subtract the child care costs without even considering a tax deduction, that family makes $69,000.
The second family, the family with the stay-at-home parent, still makes $50,000, so we have $69,000 and $50,000. From my understanding, this bill would basically take that pile of billions of dollars and give it all to the families making the $69,000 at the expense of the families making the $50,000.
You're basically subsidizing child care for the family making $69,000 or $70,000 at the expense of the family making $50,000. It is common sense, right? It is pretty common-sense math. How do you justify it? That's what I want to hear. How do you justify it?
