    Default GOP 'Tax' Bill Takes Away College Deduction From Students, Gives College To Fetuses

    That may explain why the GOP has included a very strange clause in their proposed tax plan. Hidden among massive corporate tax breaks and the other items on their long standing wish list is a curious provision allowing families to open 529 educational savings accounts for "unborn children" – essentially college plans for fetuses.

    As a parent, I am deeply sympathetic to the spiraling costs of college and the constant worry of being able to afford higher education for kids. But this provision is so bizarre that the Brookings Institute calls it "not an economic one, but an existential one."

    Once in a while you get shown the light, in the strangest of places if you look at it right.

    Why are you libtards getting all worked up? You know the circle jerk crew of Flake, McCain, Corker and Collins will vote NO and keep it from passing. You can take it to the bank

    the real issue is that it permits 529 money to be used at private k-12 schools.......and you know what that means.......some poor child might be needlessly inflicted with REL***ON paid for by money the government hasn't assessed taxes on........
