It probably just creates more loopholes. Any time a bill is passed in such a rush, there are unintended consequences

Doubling the standard deduction - that simplifies things for millions.

Rate cuts.

It's not perfect. Nothing ever is.

After 30 years of no tax overhaul, we're due. Since Democrats are all about carpe diem, I can't figure out why they are not for it also, other than the fact it's a Republican plan.

Also, why does this matter? We already know we're never getting a flat tax. Why not have 30 brackets that increase incrementally every $5k-$10k?

Can you say what your favorite part of the tax bill is
1) The doubling of the standard deduction.
2) Reducing the top corp tax rate to 21% making it more competitive with European corporate tax rates.

Right on cue. Obamacare wasn't rushed through. It went through the normal legislative process.


And it was still far from perfect.

For the OP's feeble brain, I will make it easy:

No, it didn't. Nobody was allowed to read it before it was passed, remember?

Also repeals Obamacare individual mandate.
Sort of. The mandate is still there it just removes the penalty for not complying.

Please, they ran it through so fast that nobody even bothered to read it. "We have to pass it to see what's in it" Nancy Pelosi.

Not surprised that you conveniently forgot about that.

I like knowing the idiots that cry over the bill only helping the rich will have to lie about the savings they see while taking full advantage of them.
