10. Riddle me this, Democrats...

From the article:

Also on Wednesday, the House Ways and Means Committee will draft a measure to save $53 billion over 10 years, in part by grabbing back overpayments for subsidized insurance purchases under the new health care law and by requiring parents to present a Social Security number to claim child care tax credits.

Since you need to present a social security number for your child to deduct him or her in the first place, how, exactly, is requiring a SSN to claim childcare tax credits going to save a nickel?
