tax reform

  1. frigidweirdo

    Trump wants to eliminate income tax, but replace it with tariffs on imported goods.

    This video estimates that tariffs would have to be at 133%. This would mean that other countries would also put up tariffs on US goods. So, A) foreign goods for the US would be too expensive for people to buy B) US goods would be too expensive to sell abroad. C) This would hit the working...

    . See: Biden pitches soak-the-rich tax plan: Here's what's in it It is absolutely stunning to take note of how they wine and dine our ears endlessly, over their noble cause to “tax the rich” and “help the poor”, while they cleverly design ways under their “income tax code” so millionaires...

    2017 Tax Reform

    Any reasonable, rational person would agree that we should have a universal flat tax. It’s sad that we can’t overhaul our entire idiotic tax code because some people are greedy and fear a drop off of revenue to the federal government (and thus a drop off in what they receive). The fact is...

    What a golden opportunity wasted

    If the Republicans lose seats in 2018 - they have no one to blame but themselves. Their ineptitude to this point has been nothing short of astounding.
