      Yes but when America did that, and established the ol American Dream, tax rates on the wealthy were 90% and corporations paid 50%.

      You want to Make America Great Again? ignoring that we all do, there’s no golden age without those tax rates. That’s how America did it before

        Tax credit? Taiwan literally directly deposit it into your account each month, tax free. No waiting for the end of the year.

        Also, the GDP in America doubles Taiwan and Taiwan gives double what the USA does.
