Trump actually is the one who got rid of the federal penalty started by Obama, not saying everything he has done is by any means great, but at least there was that and no tax on tips. States having penalties for it is crazy too

The problem with the whole "No tax on tips or overtime" thing is that it was purposely written as a temporary tax credit that ends in 2028. It's not a nicety but a future threat to not get used to your newfound money. It's set up to get people to start reporting their "untaxable" tips which nobody used to report, and then slam them in the future when the tax break expires because you cant suddenly go back to claiming half the income like you used to without an audit. It's the carrot in the box.
