How about you discuss the actual bill instead of irrelevancies?
Can you explain why increasing debt by 1.7T dollar to prop up "WINNING!" economy with tax cuts for the rich is such a great idea???
Stop lying then we can discuss the issue.
What am I lying about?
DISCUSS.
I'm growing tired of the left's 40 year old 'tax cuts for the rich' talking point nonsense. If you want to have a rational discussion on this topic, which could be bipartisan and thoughtful, check your talking points at the door.
What is "irrational" about not wanting to give those ALREADY DOING GREAT in this country yet another huge tax-cut at expense of blowing yet another hole in Federal budgets?
You are bailing on rational discussion because you know this tax-cut bill is ridiculous.
Christ almighty...lets discuss FACTS not talking points. This bill caps one of the biggest deductions for the 'rich' the mortgage interest deduction on homes. The vast majority of Americans are not effected by this, the rich they got screwed. Here's another the deduction for state income and sales taxes, eliminated. The poor and middle class get a pass, an increase in the standard deduction to offset this. The 'rich' again get screwed.
Bullcrap - most of the rich OWN their homes and estates and many use pass-through taxation, meaning they get a HUGE tax cut overall. But now ON TOP of that they will not be subject to alternate minimum tax AND their born-with-silver-spoon kids will now inherit all that wealth tax-free.
Middle class people on the other hand have big mortgage interest bills that will effectively increase.
