Trump needs Congress to add a small tax on transfers of money from the US to other countries to pay for the wall and border security. Its $70b a year to Mexico alone, plus all the other countries...
We don't need tax increases.
WTF do you care if we tax money transfers out of the US? Its money for Mexicans and Indians and Chinese, etc. Its the perfect funding mechanism for the wall.
I also want the top tax rate increased here in the US top pay for the Budget deficit. Someone needs to pay, and the top rate got the benefits of the tax cuts.
Because we don't need to be raising taxes for a stupid wall.
Once again, the proposed tax is NOT paid by Americans. Its paid when money is transferred out of the US. Like the $70b to Mexico. A 1% tax raises $70m a year just from Mexico. Lets assume that a 1% tax could raise $1b a year from other countries, with zero US tax dollars. Its like taking money from foreign aid.
