How To Fix The Disastrous Republican Tax Law

[C_Clayton_Jones]

There are many things wrong about or current U.S. income tax system, particularly after the changes made by the misnamed 2017 “Tax Cuts and Jobs Act” that was passed in the dead of night by Republicans desperate to appease their political contributors; too many to cover in this diary. Therefore, this is not a comprehensive critique, but I offer some proposals with respect to what I see as the main problems with the Republican tax bill.

Specifics you will soon be hearing about as this disaster gets overturned.

And have no illusions in your mind, it's going to be overturned.

Good article with some sound points.

Obviously none of the rightwing nitwits subscribing to this thread bothered to read it.

Yep, great article...if you're a dumbass.

Obviously the best ‘fix’ is repeal.

Can you explain how it will be overturned when your political party does not have the Senate nor the White House?

Do not kid yourself to believe 2020 is a lock...

I'm thinking that the 2020 democrat Budget will include a tax increase on the top rate. Sign it or shutdown the entire government. What would Trump and the GOP do? There is no real downside. The Deficit would be reduced, that's a good thing. I only wonder what their funding priorities will be? The end of the Federal government could be in the offing if they can't agree

Exactly. The House controls the budget.

Mitch McConnell can bring it up for a vote or not.

Then we go into the election cycle with the government shut down. Again.

That has worked so well for Republicans so far hasn't it?

Lets recap the 2020 election cycle, shall we.

The government shut down over tax cuts for the rich.

8 million Americans, and counting no longer have health care.

Trump takes away funding for Planned Parenthood.

11 million Americans lose tax deductions, refunds, and get tax bills they never have before.

The investigations in the House, the Southern District of New York, and Robert Mueller, continue uncovering the crimes, sleaze, and corruption of the Trump Crime Syndicate.

And just think. The Republicans still have 22 months to make it even worse.

IMO it's pretty obvious that TrumpBots don't give a shit that Trump gave the wealthiest 0.01% & the corporations a massive tax break, and turned right around and fvcked Joe Six Pack.

I'm thinking that the TrumpBots actually like getting fvcked.

I'm not in the top 0.01%, top 0.1% or even top 1%.
I got a decent tax cut.

I am not either and I got a big tax increase!

No I actually want a level playing field and have said so many times in this sight. I am all for getting did of all expenditures for everyone and a flat tax rate. The new tax law actually took away tax expenditures for the middle class and gave a few more to the corporations and uber wealthy!

Now that's MAGA for you!

The entire Federal government can't get shutdown. That would be a disaster, 2,000,000 federal workers out of work. No matter who gets blamed.
The government was shutdown over border security, not the tax cuts
If the 8m want healthcare; get a fucking job and pay for it
The 11m taxpayers can move to low tax states
The illegal witch hunt won't matter, Trump can only be removed by the voters in 2020, and they'd be morons to do that.
Trump and the GOP probably have 70 months more in power, how long can RBG and Breyer last on the USSC?

Budgets don't have tax increases. Start over!

The dems will probably put up a tax increase since the Budget Deficit is $900b a year and growing. (not part of the Budget)
The tax cuts did not magically grow the economy as assumed, along with the $4T repatriation assumption.
Can you imagine what the House/dems' first Budget (2020) will look like?
I'm not optimistic that Trump, the Senate and the House will ever be able to agree on a 2020 Budget.
