Biden's budget proposal for a second term offers tax breaks for families and lower health care costs

MANCHESTER, N.H. — (AP) — President Joe Biden on Monday released a budget proposal aimed at getting voters' attention: It would offer tax breaks for families, lower health care costs, smaller deficits and higher taxes on the wealthy and corporations. 

Unlikely to pass the House and Senate to become law, the proposal for fiscal 2025 is an election year blueprint about what the future could hold if Biden and enough of his fellow Democrats win in November. The president and his aides previewed parts of his budget going into last week's State of the Union address, and they provided the fine print on Monday.

Yeah, somehow I don't see a tax break for anybody happening - we've got wars that are none of our business to fund and millions of illegals to support. It's not going to come from the wealthy, they'll all be departing for more ta-friendly locales.
