Single mom, 5 cats, tech nerd, DIY-er, piercings, feminist, educated, yeah I’m basically your reich wing nightmare. Don’t let the door hit your unwashed ass when you leave.

This is anti-family, anti-child. And it will erase five years of clawing my way out of post-divorce poverty and debt. We’re still paycheck to paycheck, but tell me again how some rich people need to be even richer.
One GOP proposal takes aim squarely at parents raising children on their own by eliminating the “head of household” filing status to reap some $200B more in taxes over a decade from single parents and other adults caring for dependents on their own.

This is fascism. We have become so comfortable with on line data access that most people don't save information, just links. This means much of this data can be erased or modified and there may not be sources to confirm or deny the completeness or factual nature of anything that replaces it. Yikes.
