Mike will not admit our deficit is larger despite plans with tax cuts.
No, Mike said that it's irrational to blame the tax cuts for a larger deficit if the tax cuts lead to an increase in revenue. How can you not grasp this simple, basic point?
Make the tax cuts much bigger for the middle class and not so high for business, and watch the economy jump like a rabbit, businesses grow, tax revenue really grow.
HUH?! WHAT?! As I document in the OP, and as anyone can confirm by looking at the tax tables themselves, the rate-reduction for the middle-class is about 90% higher, nearly double, than the rate reduction for the rich, and this is *not* counting the fact that the Trump tax cuts have capped the rich's deductions for state and local taxes! Did you also miss the news that the Trump tax cuts nearly double the standard deduction, which wont' help any rich people but will help millions of middle-income earners? You're aware of this fact, right?
And do you just not care that we have already seen hundreds of billions of dollars of American corporate dollars that were parked overseas come back to the U.S., thanks to the corporate income tax cuts that were included in the Trump tax cuts? I mean, gee, isn't that something that liberals have been screaming they wanted to see for like . . . forever? You remember? "Bring that money home!" Remember? Remember?
It is just surreal dealing with you people. It is like dealing with a robot that is not programmed to respond to counter-arguments.
