    You need to read my column. https://www.thedailybeast.com/why-the-republicans-cant-be-content-to-pass-just-anything-on-taxes …https://twitter.com/okwowcool/status/941040853585240064 …

    @mattklewis Did you not see the tax cuts that G.W. Bush passed that created a hole in our economy in 2008? What sort of world do you live in when you honestly believe that tax cuts help the economy especially tax cuts on the richest people? There is no such thing as trickle down.

        Can you explain why when Kansas cut their taxes. The promise growth failed to materialize. Instead Kansas was plunged into the Financial crisis?

        Read it. It makes no sense to push through a tax bill that won't help the middle class. You know this. You lift up the middle class you lift the whole country up. There are no tax cuts on the middle class therefore no economy stimulation en masse.

        Tax cuts on the wealthy will not move the needle and there will only be a further divide between classes which we know is not healthy for this country. And while I agree cutting taxes on american businesses is a healthy thing to do it won't create the hoped economic stimulus.

        Taking away tax deductions from teachers won't help anyone. Taking away tax deductions from graduate students will discourage higher education for lower classes. This is how you depress the poor further.

        This tax bill is not made for the majority of Americans, it's only made for people like you @mattklewis and while I'm sure you will benefit many many others will not.
