Oops: NYT Forced to Issue Hilarious Correction on Totally Botched Tax Reform Stat
"As regular readers already know -- and as millions of Americans have been discovering -- the Left lied to the country about the impact of the GOP's tax reform bill, which every Democrat in Congress voted against. Support for the law has soared by 26 net percentage points since its December nadir, according to New York Times polling, as stubborn realities eclipse opponents' hyperbolic and disproven claims. More than four million workers have received tax reform bonuses, and millions more have experienced enhanced benefits and rising wages due to the law's implementation. Consumers in 41 states have seen their utility bills slashed for the same reason. Last, but hardly least, upwards of 90 percent of all taxpayers have received a tax cut (and an effective pay boost), across all five income groups. This was the consensus of nonpartisan experts, including left-leaning organizations."
The NYT, however, created a fictional couple to use In their own BS analysis from which they concluded the couple would actually owe MORE in taxes under Trump's Tax Reform Bill instead of benefit from it.
The only thing the NYT ended up revealing is their own extreme bias and their inability to do math / figure out how to calculate / interpret the new tax code.
"They were only off by about four grand. The beleagured couple would actually get a tax cut, not a big increase."
