You know what would've made sense? Not having this propaganda tax bill. Basically, it's to trick people into thinking they are getting a little extra money before 2018 elections.

I like tricks that pay ne$ 2548 more a year
-
You're getting a whole 49$ a week more! Retire now! Also, you're most likely going to have to pay that back and moreso since the tax bill was only sustainable if it was offset by 6% GDP growth and can't touch corporate tax cuts.
-
Am happy to have it. Will be spending it into the consumer economy (2/3 of the whole !) as will the other 50 million households thus affected. Not a bad boost to econ growth (& thus job growth)
-
Lol, come back after 2018 and let me know how it's still going. My guess is you'll find some way to blame Democrats for the fallout.
-
I don't treat politics that way. Both parties made grossly untrue arguments about the tax bill. Its true strength -- enormous consumer spending boosts, because lower income households spend every available penny -- was never pointed out.
-
I agree with about 75% here. In principle, you are absolutely correct about spending boosts. The issue I have is that IMO this doesn't accomplish the raising of buying power to the lower income households(probably not the platform to debate that nuance, lol).
-
That is true in part, except that doubling of the CTC -- and full refund of up to $ 1400 -- does help. Next step : raise the minimum wage to $ 15/hour -- or even more, as some corp's are doing

You're not being too dependent on "promises" from Congressional usurpers again, are you Senator?

I think this Senator, of all 100, knows what she is doing
-
Save for the part about foolishly trusting the others that clearly don't.

No tax payer funded wall! We could use that money to actually do some good elsewhere

I’m all in on dreamer protecting, but could your common sense committee please broach the topic of calling for all paper ballots for midterms? It would seem Trump couldn’t care less, considering he answers to Putin .

If you can get a deal, great, but let’s not pretend that spending $25 billion on a damn border wall is common sense.
