No one likes their tax bill going up so, I wouldn't like it.

What I wouldn't do is use it's effect upon me to then say the whole thing was Marxism. But, I didn't grow up thinking that the only good shite in he world was shite that worked for me.

It actually is Marxism. Why? Because Republicans can't surpass the $1.5 trillion debt limit. That means that in order to pass the tax cuts they want, they have to take money out of my pocket. That's no different, in effect, than someone robbing me on the street.

If Republicans took the more difficult route, one that requires a handful of Democrats to approve, but wouldn't have the arbitrary $1.5 trillion debt limit, they could give a tax cut to literally everyone. There absolutely are vulnerable Democrats who could be convinced to vote for such a tax bill. But Republicans are lazy. It's easier to just raise my taxes to "pay for" other peoples' cuts than it is to bother getting a handful of Democrats on board.
