I’m just curious, if you have personally benefited from Trump’s tax cut are you willing to remit your tax savings back to the government behemoth?

It works better if you actually read what a post says before you respond, instead of just assuming what you think it said.

As I am firmly implanted in the middle class, I can effectively testify that they are correct. I appreciate the $3,200/year I no longer have to pay Uncle Sam.

LOL! The only tax plan proposed by Democrats would be to raise taxes, so I'd hope the Republicans would vote against.

Would you say there are more people in the middle class or the upper class?

That's because the Democrats are the party of tax and spend.






...while the Republicans are the party of borrow and spend.

Not feeling too good about either approach, they both seem to increase our debt load. If only there was a third option.

I can honestly say this isn't true.

If by some miracle Dems actually introduced a tax cut bill without pork, the republicans would vote for it.

Unfortunately this kind of thing never happens in politics.

Wild, let me be clear, I am not a fan of much that has gone in in DC. We are very close to the ruling class and us.

You have to be able to see that the order in which Trump does things is important. Spending cuts will happen after these midterms, or after he is re-elected.

Trump hasn't made any significant cuts. It's one of the reasons I laugh when I hear the left speak of him as some far right extremist.

We are in agreement with this. Hopefully Trump can (continue to) get us going in the right direction. Maybe he can.

We got (presumably) middle class leftists who oppose tax cuts bc the rich, who are being taxed too much, get more dollar for dollar value from the tax cuts. You people need to be put in camps or shipped to Canada.

The frick?

When I have an extra 3k in my pocket I'm supposed to be pissed that someone that made more money also saved more money than me? Am I supposed to be pissed I didnt 100% tax cut?

You realize Democrats want to take that 3k back from me and that's my alternative right? Lmao dumb arse.
