        Actually, tax laws are also causing middle class long term marriages to divorce and divide assets so they can’t be taken in a lien for long term residential health care. It’s also causing lots of folks to #ShackUp.

        Why on earth was Alimony ever a deduction?

        Child support was also non-taxable. Now alimony is treated like child support. For the bottom 95% this is no big deal, but NYT will sell it like a tax on the poor

        Child support only went until child was 18, alimony usually goes until spouse receiving it gets remarried. I didn’t think NYT was selling it as tax on poor (@least from my view) but rather “boo hoo for the rich who can’t deduct it now”. Getting rid of exemptions drew my ire

        I am very far from a rich woman but made more money than my spouse and I had to pay alimony. Luckily it was not long term and was able to deduct it.

        2/2 but I also think courts shouldn’t force a person to pay alimony longer than the couple was actually married ... I’ve seen some cases where a spouse is paying for 25+ years when they were only married for 15...

        Replying to @ViYeh @cwalsh1215 and

        It’s typically only paid until remarriage. The problem with that is some spouses will intentionally not remarry to keep collecting the alimony.

        Unbelievable the extent to which the average American is being screwed over with a tax cut that shifts wealth upwards and promotes the economic enslavement of the population at large. Unprecedented rip-off that must be corrected with our vote. Start the Rx now and complete in Nov

        That’s probably why Jr. got divorced. That, and he’s a horrible punk.
