If Ridley Scott, the director understands the Republican tax cuts...why can't left wingers get it?

[2aguy]

Yep.....the real worry that left wingers have about Trump's tax cuts is that they actually will boost the economy, save money for people and make everyone just a tiny bit better off......and if Ridley Scott gets it, why can't left wing doofuses get it...or is that doofi?

Director Ridley Scott Offers Strong Defense of Trump Tax Reform

While out doing publicity for his latest movie, All the Money in the World, the 80-year-old behind such iconic films as Blade Runner, Alien, Gladiator, The Martian, Thelma and Louise, and Black Rain, was not even asked about President Trump or taxes. Answering a question about the “value of human life, class struggles and the role of wealth in society” and how it pertains to the “this moment in America,” Scott volunteered this defense:

Well, let’s take the tax bill. People say (Republicans) are doing it for the wealthy class. What they forget is if you get a clever, un-selfish business person — I don’t care if it’s a corner store or a big business — who’s suddenly saving 15 percent, they’ll put it back in this business. Then you’re going to get growth and therefore (people) will get employed.

Because they are constantly assaulted by those they trust saying otherwise.

 

[Lewdog]

Wait what?

After saying how scummy Hollywood is, you are using a director to defend the new tax bill?

What!?!?

The Trump tax cuts are like a little kid taking sugar because he's feeling a little low.

He takes the sugar, feels fucking amazing, is bounding around the room, his parents are a bit pissed off, and then he crashes and gets moody as fuck and then won't do anything but cry for 2 hours.

The biggest thing that people fail to realize is... the middle class tax cuts are temporary, the rich and big business ones are permanent. That is until Democrats take back Congress and fix this shit.

Good luck with that.

Once again, we see the 'Trickle Down' theory. We have seen this in action before. The correct name for that is 'Piss on the Peon'. It didn't work then, it won't work now. Not for the working poor, the middle class, nor the professional class. Only for the very wealthy. But that is what this bill was all about, so the GOP succeeded. And if you are not extremely wealthy, and supported this, you are a Goddamned fool.

The Reagan tax cut created one of the best economies we have ever had......you guys have been lying about it since they were passed.......
