And I'm all for that...but to be a "child tax credit", it means it comes off your tax liabilities and you only have tax liabilities if you're working enough to pay taxes....and even then it only covers what you've paid in, otherwise it's a vote buy...

I'm sure there are some large corporations in Minnesota that didn't pay any taxes on large profits and got a pass on property taxes also.
It is annoying that these programs always seem to put money in someone else's pocket. Some people with no income will actually file to get this money but most won't. This slice of low income households are just not on top of things and probably couldn't explain a child tax credit if their life depended on it.
I've changed my perspective a bit, if you can get something out of government, TAKE IT!
