Obviously, the Left opposes The HAPPY Act. Anything that takes money from an out-of-control central government and gives it back to the people who actually earned it is anathema to them — but there’s been some polite opposition from our side, as well.
What you might call “killing the good in pursuit of the perfect” reasoning:
This will only complicate an already complicated tax code…
…which is why God invented TurboTax.
People will abuse the law…
…and 99% of the laws on the books could be disqualified with that line of reasoning.
Any tax law — any tax law — that keeps tax-dollar-crack out of the hands of DC Democrats and in the hands of the people who earned it is a good thing.
Robert nails it best in the video, though, when he suggests people debate and discuss the Happy Act on the merits. The link above sends you to a copy of the actual bill. Many of the concerns people have voiced are already addressed in the bill.
