        Political tax cuts often mean working class pay more-this's cluster fecking mess appears to be 1% cuts, Corp cuts, and 2trillion added debt!

        Oh pleeeease. It’s payback for the rich GOP donors. They DEMANDED it and I hope it ends their party. If passed people are really going to be pissed and hopefully that will be the end of the Grand Old Pedophile party.

        It's been that way for a long time. "Tax cut" means "more corporate welfare" and someone has to pay for that welfare program.

        Immediate increase for high cost states. 10-12% state tax x $150k = tax increase of $3750-$4875. Lmk when $150k made anyone super rich?

        No surprise, it’s the party of the 1%, it’s the great magic trick that so many vote against their own economic interest

        If the GOP has lost the WSJ already, this tax plan is doomed.

        The overarching goal is to nix the estate tax. To cover this up they want to eliminate middle class deductions to mitigate debt increase.

        Any self-proclaimed fiscal conservative loses any credibility they might have if they support this deficit-inflating mess.
