That is going to be a devastating kick in the crotch to anyone who's been long-term unemployed and has the great good fortune of getting a well-paying job during the year. Instead of being able to focus on using the new income to shore up the family finances and pay down debts that have accumulated during the period of unemployment, that person is now going to have to pay back Uncle Sugar first.
Good. It seems those are the kinds of lessons required to make Americans take notice.
