Because of the irresponsible #GOPTaxBill, we are going to have about a trillion dollar deficit next year—and not during a recession, but at nearly full employment. We’re borrowing that money from our children & grandchildren to give tax cuts to the wealthiest Americans. #TaxDay

Here’s one of many articles reporting exactly what we expected: “Most of the extra cash from tax savings is going into the pockets of stock shareholders through dividend increases and companies buying back their own stock in hopes of boosting its price.”https://www.usatoday.com/story/money/2018/04/13/how-companies-spend-tax-windfall/505122002/ …

Let’s not forget Obama’s 8 years doubled the National debt to almost $20 trillion. You think we can tax our way out of this? Try cutting the careless spending pushed through by you and Democrats. Then try to blame everyone else. Shame on you

Deficit borrowing up 84% since Obama. Stocks in red for 2018, down since

Way to skip over the Obama years Senator.

Explain. Obama led U.S. through historic financial crisis which affected the world, caused by Bush & Repubs, leaving office with a thriving economy despite obstructionist Congress. He was given a lemon and made lemonade. Old white men are responsible for 90% of the world's ills.

So when people keep money the made in the form of a paycheck or an investment, that “costs” the feds money? People don’t get paid a refund. People get a refund because they overpaid their taxes.

It doesn't work that way in all cases. lower middle and poor classes get what they overpay in, back. The top income brackets get more back than what's paid in. Special breaks lower incomes can't get

Clinton DID NOT leave a surplus. It was a PROJECTED surplus. AKA Gov’t Fuzzy Math.

Care to cite a source? Got a world almanac here that says it was a surplus.

With a link perhaps to a specific website, report or annual budget?
