This is a continuation of our discussion of the final versions of the House and Senate Tax Cuts and Jobs Act (sic) bill. Those are now the law of the land, PL 115-97.
Congress, the Senate, and President Obama agreed on a tax compromise for 2013 and 2014. I know everyone thought it was a tax decrease- but that was ONLY because the taxes had INCREASED automatically with the change of the calendar to 2013.

(The Social Security tax on one’s pay was reduced from 6.2% to 4.2%. Unfortunately, that meant that the trust fund was not collecting enough money to keep solvent.)
