Tom, debating you is like playing chess against a fish, one that's flopping about in the bottom of a boat. Not only do your moves not make sense; the pieces don't even stay put long enough for logic to work. Yeah we all read your liberal tripe and see it for what it is. A woman is paying $13 or $14 for a package of hamburger and you would suggest to her to go to a cheaper store. What a contemptible cur you are. Then you tell us you're charitable? You are an F-ing liar. |

I would LOVE to print this conversation in your local paper's letters to the editor so people can see you for what you are. I don't know what you're talking about. Nothing I said was incorrect or even controversial. Now this may be controversial: estimates are that the tax plan will reduce federal revenue between $4.4T and $5.9T. No new revenue sources have been identified. What usually happens with giant tax cuts is that they get reversed in part (Reagan/Bush) to fill the massive revenue shortfall, and the people filling the shortfall are those with the least clout -- ordinary tax-payers. So what will happen is that the standard deduction/personal exemptions will be rolled back and marginal rates may creep up again. The corporate rate would undoubtedly stay the same. The biggest winners would continue to win. I've itemized for decades, and the planned changes would probably mean a tax increase for me (even with the elimination of the AMT) -- but I haven't seen actual proposed code sections, so who knows. Reagan filled the revenue gap in part by phasing out certain deductions for the wealthy. That wouldn't happen today. Reagan couldn't get elected today and would be considered a back-stabbing RINO. What happens these daysy is that the little(r) guy carries the load. -- Jay Beattie. Jay, the Kennedy and Reagan tax cuts both increased personal income and taxable income to the point that government income increased. If you look at http://www.econdataus.com/taxcuts.html you have to be somewhat skeptical of their conclusions because everything appears to be "corrected" by the value of today's dollar. |

Kansas trickle down again in DC.....3 Rep governments intent on destroying the economy with bizarre discredited economic 'theories' and inability to function. ... the trickle goes to the Chinese crap like eliminating estate tax goes into Wall Street n has near nothing to do with industrial robustness. absolute mindless BS ....self interest fools groping for a rationale easily giving rise to conspiracy charges of weakening the state for Chinese Russian gains. |
