Because the procedural mechanism Republicans want to use to pass Trump's policy agenda requires that legislation generally not add to the federal debt, that means Republicans would have to offset the tax cuts with massive amounts of cuts elsewhere in the budget.

And even GOP lawmakers are admitting the cuts they’ll need to make will be painful for the American people.

"It will be littered with a collection of ideas, some of which Americans are going to really not be for, but hey, if we don't sacrifice, if we don't understand that this is going to be a painful process, nothing’s going to change," Republican Rep. Mike Flood of Nebraska said in an interview with Bloomberg on Thursday, referring to the forthcoming GOP budget that will be used to pass Trump's tax-cut agenda.


Priorities people. Your meager lives just aren't as valuable as these hedge fund managers, business owners, oil execs, and trust fund babies.

Sacrifices will have to be made.

All but 2 billionaires I know of are dimtards, skrewey.
The working class benefits from a Trump economy, just like in his first term, and it will be better this time around.
But what would you know about a working class?

Why are you so fixated on tax policy that doesn't affect you? What sacrifices will you have to make?

Yes, the working class benefited from Trump's economy. Uh, well, economy, not so much after Covid. It was the government handouts, the enhanced unemployment benefits, the stimulus checks. While GDP was shrinking, real incomes increased. That has never happened in the history of this country. It only happened because Trump was all but dropping money from helicopters.

I mean Trump put it all on a credit card. Although he probably didn't say it, it is claimed Franklin said when the people find out they can vote themselves money the Republic will end. Trump kind of turned that on its head. First, he gave the billionaires their tax breaks, threw us a few temporary crumbs, the irony here is almost comical. But the sad reality is, it was planned all along.

Then the corporations got their tax cuts, permanently. Look, if you had a graph where one line showed the percentage of total government revenue that came from corporate taxes, and the other line showed our progress to a world of shit, with a Lorentz curve that is off the chain and nearing the disaster area. You will find they are almost perfectly inverted.

Trump was not voted in because the people voted themselves money. Hell, he just gave it to them, straight up. Many were not even asking. And he played up the trinkets the working class got, all the while sucking it back up with tariffs. Now, he is between a rock and a hard place.

He has a hell of a row to hoe if he thinks he can cut taxes on the working class. First, he has to keep them from going up. And they are going up because of him, it was a law he signed. HIs tax cuts on the middle class are going to expire this year. Poof, gone. Congress has to do something to extend them. But the only way they can do it is with a reconciliation bill, and even that is a long shot, the Republican party is so damn dysfunctional.

That requires them to offset the cost of any tax cuts with spending cuts. Well hello howdy. You mean we finally got there. Damn, fifty years of living the lie, tax cuts generate revenue. Not when marginal rates are this low. Glad that is not even an argument anymore.

But the cuts are coming, and they are going to be hard. There are going to be some really disappointed Trump voters. Then they are going to get angry. And it is only going to get worse. Elon has ran amoke. He is like a bull in a China shop, with a vendetta against the owner of the shop. And Trump just can't keep from letting his mouth overload his asshole. Gaza? Come on dude, STFU. Greenland? Panama Canal? Damn, don't feed the flippin orangutang, Gulf of America, can you flash the insecurity any brighter?

You may want to make a note, gotta have taxable income to get a tax break...moron.
 
Reality is we have $36 trillion in debt it’s unsustainable. There are gonna have to be cuts somewhere government can’t keep spending like it has been it’ll bankrupt this country.

They'll use the savings from USAID, the Department of Education and the massive layoffs DOGE will find.

It'll be glorious!!!
 
The Daily Kook.... for a kook.

Nobody should take that crap seriously

I know! And after that stopped, Biden still added more debt than Trump, with no recession. Helicopter not needed.

It is ironic. Old lunch bucket Joe had 4 years and didn't even try to make the middle-class tax cuts permanent.

That was awful, cutting our rates to levels competitive with the rest of the world.
I guess no one wants to try your idea yet, "Higher corporate rates are better for growth".

Weird.

Doesn't everyone know that 60% corporate rates are better for investment than 21% rates?

Still unclear to me how you think taxes work, explain how rich get anything?
 
If every poor and middle class working person got a 40,000 tax breaks, who would vomplain?
 
Doesn't matter the poor don't affect the economy.
And they don’t pay taxes. Do you give them 40k and you don’t think that matters? Hahaha go away stupid

Every large tax cut plan has resulted in more revenue coming into the treasury, so WTF needs to be "paid for".

Stop reading the daily kooks. It's rotting what little brain matter you have left.

So what fo you want the poor to do? You can agree we need a shrinking workforce. Imagine how the economy does with a drop of 10 percent.
 
Billionaires shouldn't have to pay any taxes at all.
