    The Republicans would fillabuster it in the Senate, or some heritage foundation nutjob judge in bumfuck Idaho would block its implementation.

        Hell in 2016 Trump was saying everyone making under 40K wouldn’t be taxed, they’d just get a note from the IRS saying “you win!”

        There’s no reason for dems not to push this legislature to show people in red states that their representatives aren’t on board with helping them.

        I mean there is, that their own corporate benefactors would stop giving them money, but if they were just a little less beholden to the capitalist class, there would be no reason not to.

      Hate to say it but yeah, I don’t see this making it to Biden’s desk before his term is up. Or, if he somehow did manage to have a bill to sign into law, individual states would fail to implement it because “muh tax base” or some shit.
