    why not enlighten us all and tell us what is the norm
    Everything varies... But the average tax cut is expected to be around 1600 for the year.

    I was able to travel to Europe last year for 10 days for less than that, by the way

    link ?

    average ?
    $1.50 x52= $78 per year.
    I know I am slow to mathematics concepts but something stinks there

    1600 / 52= $30.76 per week

    In 2-3 weeks the "average" wage earner is getting a tax break comparable to Paul Ryan's secretary yearly break
    According to your numbers.

    Earlier I misspoke quoting $400 per week. And corrected that figure with a couple hundred a month.
    you might want to go back and check that again

    Somewhere that proverbial 79% number comes into play

    Would it matter? Isn't 1600 just 1.6 crumbs?

    You seem to inadvertently fortify Rep Pelosi's characterization of Paul Ryan's secretary getting the crumbs.

    The "average" American getting 30x the tax credit of Ryan's secretary.

    Not that I've seen on his Twitter but I have been working all day so not sure if he commented or not. I just find it hilarious that that was the example he cited as proof of his tax cut working.

    He said it was a public high school secretary in PA.

    Somehow you turned that into her being Paul Ryan's secretary.

    I don't understand why you always lie about the simplest things

    As a guy who is always ragging on others about their math skills, you ought to know better than to use an average as your measuring stick here.

    When you spout things that are fake (Paul Ryan's secretary?), what would you call it?
