Tax Revenues Jump 13% To Record High In April — When Will Dems Admit They Were Wrong?

People paid their taxes in April

What more proof do you need that Trumps tax cuts are working?
 
I've been using that site and the debt to the penny site forever................Funny now your side is using it to attack Trump.

How much did Obama add to the debt............hmmmm

More than all the other Presidents before him.............hmmmm

And Suddenly you care.


Certainly you don’t mean “all other presidents before him” combined? The last president to do that was Reagan.

Now you play the percentage game.............expected...it's the same game played on Tax cut for the rich.............as you don't take into account that those with more money get more money back.......and as you ignore that business passes on the taxes in the price of the product.

America needs better paying jobs..............and you don't get that by punishing those you want to invest.

It's not a game. It's called reality. If you were meant to say Obama added more debt than all other presidents combined, you're merely full of shit -- he didn't.

You're also ignoring the reality that he stepped on an IED we formerly knew as our economy, when he became president. That greatly contributed to the debt which had nothing to do with his policies; and you're also assigning debt to him that was built into the budget by Bush, whose budget we were still operating under for the first few months of Obama's presidency.

But my favorite part is that conservatives can no longer lucidly bitch about the debt under Obama as they ignore the trillion dollars Trump has added in a good economy.

The Graph doesn't lie. Massive amount of debt under Obama. Over 7 Trillion..........Try again.


I'll try again to educate uour stupid ass.

The vast percentage of this debvt stemmed from Bush & your stupid fucking party.

It was the Bush recession that added the bulk, then the debt increased also due to the Bush tax cuts & Bush's unfunded expansion to Medicare and Bush's quagmire wars.
 
Poor, poor fIngerboy

Cutting revenue while maintaining existing spending INCREASES your deficit

Just like we are seeing with Crooked Donnie
2 edged sword. If it promotes growth then your point is mute. As it has happened under other Presidents such as Kennedy. Who was actually a Dem we could deal with. You and your clowns.........not so much.

Keep the Change on Obama. Oh..........I'm sorry........his legacy is almost dead.
Moot
We'll see.......Manufacturing is coming back........after being in a death spiral for ages.

We'll see if it's Moot.
Actually, manufacturing spiraled under Bush and his Great Recession. It started coming back in 2010, leveled off in 2015, and started going up again under Trump.

NAFTA and Free Trade Agreements ring a bell.................who signed that..........was it the same guy who signed too big to fail to self regulate.

Not another ignorant fuck TYrumpette.

NAFTA was negotiated by George HW Bush who signed the treaty.

The Treaty was not ratified in Congress - it's defeat led by Democrats.

It was then put forth as a bill to enact the actions of that treaty & it passed - mainly with Republican support.

Clinton signed the bill.

So NAFTA was a Republican concept all the way & Republicans put it on Clinton's desk.

All the deregulations under Clinton were Republicans efforts. Many attained through compromise bills.
 
Which is why you miss the point.
Tax revenues are lowest in February- that's when people get their refund checks.

Tax revunues are high in April, that's when those of us who have to pay money do so.

Again, I just have to conclude you aren't very smart.

The point you are trying so desperately to ignore is that revenues this April were higher than revenues last April. According to the leftwing alternate theory of realty, tax revenues should have been lower.
No one is ignoring it -- what's being explained to you, but you're too big of a fucking moron to understand, is that it's due to reasons not related to Trump's tax cuts, which just went into effect 3 months earlier.
Typical leftard response. If Trump does something to help the country and its citizens, it wasn't because of Trump.
Stupid ass.
That was basically what the right wailed about the president during Obama's 8 years.
The difference being oblamer did nothing to help anybody except muslims, terrorists, and illegal immigrants.

What a lying POS you are.

Trump only does shit that helps himself & you peple are too ignorant to know it. Trump is making millions from being President & you still kiss his fast ass everyday.
 
When the GoP is in charge, it is always the Dem's fault.
Your side had everything and couldn't get what you wanted...........

Might be because your argument is BS.
Has the GOP had the house, senate, SCOTUS, and WH this admin?

Why, yes, it has.

All faults, then, belong to the GOP.
And your side had it all. Couldn't pass your budget now could you.............weren't you the one bragging on that earlier.

:abgg2q.jpg:
Lying fuck, there were budgets passed.

How the fuck did you get this stupid?

What budget has Trump signed?
 
Once again, snowflake claims about tax cuts are proven wrong. Everything they know is wrong.

Trump Tax Cuts: Revenues Hit Record High In April

The federal government collected far more taxes this April than it did a year ago, despite the "budget busting" Trump tax cuts. So, we'll ask again: Are the tax cuts paying for themselves?

According to the latest monthly report from the Congressional Budget Office, revenues in April totaled $515 billion — a 13% increase over last April and an all-time high for the month.

For the current 2018 fiscal year, which started last October, revenues are $83 billion higher than they were the year before — an increase of 4.3%. That's a faster rate of growth than occurred during President Obama's last years in office. (See nearby chart.)

Individual taxes, the CBO report says, are up 11.5% so far this fiscal year, and payroll taxes are up 2.8%. Both are signs of a healthy labor market, which is creating more jobs, higher wages and, as a result, more tax revenues. Those gains, the CBO says, more than offset the 22% decline in corporate income taxes.

In other words, in a fiscal year that's seven months old (four of which were after the tax cuts went into effect), federal revenues are higher than ever.

Or, to put it another way, it looks like those of us who predicted the pro-growth tax cuts would at least partially pay for themselves through increased economic growth were correct.

The CBO admitted as much earlier this year, when it sharply increased its forecast for economic growth this year and next, largely because of Trump's tax cuts. That, in turn, will generate $1 trillion more in revenues than expected.
You fail to say the deficit for the first 6 months of fiscal year 2018 is close to 600 billion dollars. The last year of Obama's Presidency the deficit for the whole year was less than 700 billion.
The CBO is forecasting increasing deficit over the next two years considering the tax cut and it's affect on the economy.

Talk about manipulating the stats
The tax cut reduced the deficit, moron. Revenues went up, not down. The deficit went up because of the budget bill laden with Democrat pork.
The Republicans have the House and the Senate and full control of the budget, moron.
you are a fricking idiot.
They'd have to go Nuclear like the Dems under Obama. They had trouble passing shit when they had both. There are rules and ways to kill bills when you don't have a super majority.
Democrats had a veto proof majority for about 6 months.

Why do these morons struggle with math?

The deficit has increased since the ill advised Trump tax cuts
What "math" says the increasing revenues causes a larger deficit?

You are a special kind of stupid.

Math & logic are not represented in your Trumpette little brain.
 
Obama did not sign a budget until the 7th years of his admin.

Trump signed a budget late last year.

Keep them hands out you worthless marxist piece of shit.
 
I'm sure glad old President Trumpybear finally solved Obama's 2008 economic collapse and depression.

:spinner:

It would be pretty difficult for Obama to have created the 2008 economic collapse/depression since he took office on Jan.20, 2009.

Doesn't matter. Lord God and Savior Trumph saved us, that'a all we need to know.
Brought to you by the lemming class of 2018. (even though the little rodents got a bad rap!)

blind. Trupettes are blind to Trump's corruption.

It is a FACT, a real fact & not one your your ilk's alternative facts, the Trump resorts have billed the government tens of thousands of dollars.

Are you denying this?
 
Source: NYT

Enough said. How can anyone credible claim Obama is responsible for only 16.8% of the debt?
Those that know do.

Ignortant fucks like you, not so much.

The Bush Recession, the Bush Tax Cuts the Unfunded exapanaion to Medicare, the Quagmire wars - all debt due to Bush's actions, not Obama's.
All Bushes fault. What a stupid fuck you are.

So, who pushed for &signed the unfunded Bush tax cuts.

Whop pushed for & signed the Part D expansion to Medfcare?

Who started & mismanaged two quagmire wars?

Who was driving the train when we went from a balanced budget to the worst recession in 80 years?

GEORGE W BUSH. Your hero,
