Tax cuts dressed up as help for the middle class should be labelled for what they are: welfare for the wealthy.

Found the dude in the lower 40% bracket.

Yeah...the middle class are actually wealthy...when compared to you I guess.

Now you have my attention. I sincerely HOPE a large portion of entitlements are cut from the budget. It's about time my involuntary donations were no longer used to pander to a select few in an effort to garner votes for corrupt career politicians.

I honestly don't know how you could believe keeping all the myriad entitlements is a good thing.

Well the bottom 50 % don't pay federal income taxes so how should they benefit from a cut. And your taxes went up be ause you finally got a job.

Right. Cutting it 5% won’t suddenly save the economy.

I like it - it's not perfect but I have lived here for over 20 years. I moved here when I graduated from Auburn. great restaurants and they have a long Beltline greenway thing that goes through the city.

The budget for the National Endowment for the arts over the next 10 years is $2 trillion (at a static rate).

I wish there was, too....I have a close friend whose niece has Down's Syndrome and 'retard' is not a word I use. Shame on you, Auburn man.

I made about 2/3 what I make now when the Trump tax cuts went into effect, and I got more take home money from it. Noticeably more.

So when I’m told to ignore my eyes, that they were tax cuts for the rich, I know I’m hearing from the lying Orwellian left.

What does this mean? How have low and middle income Americans incurred any "expense"? Did their taxes go up to pay for supposed tax cuts for the rich?

You're a fricking retard. Low and middle income people largely use the standard deduction instead of itemized. The standard deduction was basically doubled in 2017, that primarily benefits the low and middle income and not for the wealthy.

There's no fricking way you're a middle or low income earner and the only time your taxes went up was under Trump unless you entered a higher tax bracket due to making more money, which would have nothing to do with Trump's tax policy and you wouldn't be considered low or middle income.

Understand the definition of “Rich” to these folks. Any household earning 6 figures is “Rich” in the mind of your typical Democrat.
