Oh that sucks. When will I get my tax cut? What am I supposed to do with it? I don't need anything. 47% are already paying no taxes so we can't cut their taxes. They should just cut taxes for small business.

It serves my self interest if they cut taxes for small businesses.

Personally I think they should be generous in tax credits to small businesses that make investments (like accelerated depreciation, R&D tax credits, etc) that make them more competitive globally.

What will they do with all that money they are saving?

Tax cuts for the wealthy. Trump has much sympathy for them. And them only. If they are him.

And we need to get granny to start paying. Enough of the Christian ethics crap.

I like the part where the defense budget was cut drastically and education left intact.

Keep them dumb, it's easier cannon fodder and they'll keep voting for your guy as you gerrymander democracy away one district at a time.

Really its not fair. I think the rich should pay just as much taxes as the poor do. A flat tax would fix that, but democrats are in the hands of their rich donors so it will never happen.

Would you be ok w/goods and services being paid as a percentage of what people make? Because otherwise it's not really equal across the board.

Nope, the wealthy should pay much more than they do now. The progressive tax system should be moreso.

LOL, his logic is Dems won't let flat tax happen because of their rich donors, how in the world does that make sense when flat tax benefits the rich immensely

It doesn't. He is an idiot Trumper. Is there any other kind?

I'm just trying to get along, we all agree it should be fair for everyone. Flat tax would be a tax increase for Warren Buffet, he's paying less than his secretary. They should both pay the same rate. Anything less is unfair. Now, we could debate if everything should be fair and is that a good way to run an economy, but I try to keep it down on the Democrat Herpies Drip feed. Everything should be fair and it's just not fair that it isn't. One side thinks everybody should pay the same percentage, the other side thinks everybody should be left with the same amount.
