"The expanded child tax credit ... help[ed] to drop poverty and hunger rates for 61 million children in the U.S. However, immediately after the expanded credits expired in 2022, the child poverty rate more than doubled, going from 5.2[%] to 12.4[%] in just one year."
Michael and Susan Dell announced that they will donate $6.25 billion to fund investment accounts for 25 million children in the U.S. The money would bolster “Trump accounts” launched by the White House in July by providing each eligible child with $250 for their account’s growth.
Amid Dell Donation, Critics Warn “Trump Accounts” Won’t Address Most Families’ Needs
The program is “another giveaway to the richest Americans that leaves everyone else further behind,” one critic said.

$6.25B is a lot of money. It’s also only 4.1% of the $152B Michael Dell has hoarded. If Dell paid the 37% tax rate on the wealthy he'd pay $56.25B—and still have nearly $100B, more than he'd ever need
