If the economy needs an economic stimulus package that involves tax rebates, why would we not also make the tax cuts permanent that are due to expire soon? Would it not follow that a tax rebate is basically the same thing as a tax cut? The rebate, from what I've read, would go to dual incomes as high as 110K, and those people are affected by the tax cuts.
Not meant to be rhetorical, really. I really don't understand the difference and I'm wondering if someone can offer an explanation.
