Breaking: Donald vows to give the rich a tax cut but they'll still pay more than now

[bendog]

He's still negotiating with his brain.

"Now, if I increase it on the wealthy, that means they're still going to pay less than they're paying now," he said. "I'm not talking about increasing from this point, I'm talking about increasing from my tax proposals."

Trump: 'Everybody is getting a tax cut'

angry old white farts don't care, he can't tax their social security checks.

Seems like the "rich" should get a tax cut, anus. They are paying the most in taxes now, and have been, for decades. How much are you shilling out, dipshit?

High-income Americans pay most income taxes, but enough to be ‘fair’?

I saw the interview in question. What he said sounded contradictory but when asked about it he clarified what he ment.

Why does everyone ALWAYS jump on the out of context soundbites & edited quotes?

People pay taxes on SS income. So, they actually pay twice.

not as a % of income .... small little details.

It's all bullshit, nobody is getting a tax CUT, at best some people might get a tax SHIFT, as in lowering taxes now in return for MUCH HIGHER tax rates in the future because nobody (including Trump) is willing to reduce federal spending to the degree that is necessary to bring revenues inline with spending over the long term.

We're past the point where increased economic activity brought about by simple income tax reduction can outstrip the rate of increase in government spending over any significant length of time; the supply side party is over, the growth of entitlement spending and debt service killed it.

Your benefits generally are not taxable if half of your benefits, plus all your other income, is less than $25,000 if you are single ($32,000 if you are married filing jointly).

 

[Sun Devil 92]

I think Dump still thinks he is going to increase over income in this country to the point that even with a lower bracket...you'll pay more because you are making so much more.

The upper class making more...that's new.

Tax Policy Center found last year that there about 4,000 households with incomes over $1 million that were not paying anything at all.

And I'm sure all the wealthy crack dealers, bank robbers, illegal Mexicans and recent flood of Muslims are all lined up to pay Uncle Sugar their fair share of taxes. Why don't you go fuck yourself. Seriously.

The opinion by somebody named Jesse Brown likely contains more political spin than fact and that's the way editorials work these days. Notice that almost nobody in the media estimates the impact on the U.S. under socialist idiots like Sanders or neo-socialists like the Clinton crooks?

quit deflecting you pos , you''re irrelevant.

I do think we need to lower the Corporate Tax Rate, but a blanket tax cut for the rich isn't necessary. Any new tax cuts need to go to the Middle Class. The rich are fine. They don't need the cuts.

What I stated is an undisputable fact. If you can't absorb facts, go fuck yourself. Not my problem.

No income tax is paid on FICA deductions as they are pretax deductions like 401k contributions so you have to pay the income tax when you receive it as retirement income.

How can half of the people pay less than 0% income tax?

Actually, you pay the Medicare payroll tax on your SS.
