Original Message
Right now on CNN they are talking about the major highlights of the decisions made from fiscal cliff summit. 2 of the bazillion points hit on were:
- No more paychecks to the mentally ill
- Removal of marriage tax benefits.
Very interesting that they are starting to really hone in and target various groups now. Before it used to be like based on tax cuts for individual pay classes/rates or statuses or something else.
