After the tax cuts expire, the child tax credit will be reduced
from $1000 to $500 per child.  That increases my tax liabilty by
$2500.  I will also move from the 10 percent tax bracket into the
15 percent tax bracket which is in itself a 50% tax increase.  My
standard deduction will also return to the previous
pre-marriage-penalty amount.  It is a significant tax increase for me.

Note that I am the head of a family of seven, not a family of four.

Thanks,
