Income Inequality will explode in Trump's second term! The rich will get richer!!!!

[Luckyone]

What extreme? You’ve already been showed that the working class received triple the tax relief (between 16% and 26% savings) versus the rich (6% tax savings). Your idiotic response, due to your TDS, was that cutting the taxes of the working and middle class would hurt them in the long run.

Your hate for Trump has fried your brain:

First, you lie and say that only the top 2% got tax cuts.

Second, when I show you that the vast majority of taxpayers got tax cuts, you say it will hurt them.

Sorry, but your frantic attempts to pain Trump as harmful to the nation - you can stop already…he won! - is making you present totally illogical points, and it’s a waste of my time.

You continue to read what you want to read but not what I actually state.

I have repeatedly stated that this is not about the issues but about Trump and who he is. The man has no morals, ethics, principles or humanity and on top of that, he is incompetent. Such a person being our leader is a formula for disaster with a 99% probability that he will cause permanent damage of great consequence to our country.

 

[Luckyone]

Yeah ? How ?

How? are you blind?

Start with the fact that McCarthy was taken out by his own Far Right part of his party

This post clearly shows that you have no idea what you're talking about. Sheeeesh!

That’s your deranged opinion. Everything you said is a description of Biden, who announced with glee when speaking about the devastation of the LA fires that he was a great-grandpa! Yay!

We saw what having a man like Biden - a man with no morals, ethics, principles, or humanity, and on top of that is incompetent - did to our country. And there is absolute certainty that Biden DID do consequential damage to our country - and the world.

I don't know what I am talking about?

Hahahahaha

Let me ask you a couple of simple questions

Would you leave your young kids with a nanny that did not care about them or their safety?
Would you work for a boss that if you saw something being done wrong and mentioned it to him, would fire you immediately?
Would you do business with someone that was constantly trying to con you?
Would you trust someone with your life that was incompetent and never acknowledged mistakes?
Would you be comfortable having a friend that had turned on his friends before simply because they had different opinions?
Would you trust your spouse if he/she was having paid sex with prostitutes and lying about it?
etc,

You'll have to do better than that.

If you cannot see that the Far Right presently is in control of the party, then you are blind.

Your statements are strongly biased and simply wrong. I can 100% prove that Trump has no morals, ethics, principles or humanity but I dare you to prove that Biden has none.

By the way, Biden has been rated by most everyone (except people like you) as being one of the most humane people around.

^^^ look at who is accusing someone else of being extremely biased! And to “prove” his case, he quotes from the extremely biased WaPo.

I swear, these libs haven’t learned a thing! If they weren’t so arrogant, maybe they could question themselves - since they lost the election and most people disagree with them - if they might be wrong. But, naaaa…..

So you can't prove your statement, right?

What statement? I proved that your claim that only the richest 2% cut a tax cut. The biggest tax cuts, proportionately, were to the working and middle classes.

correct, every tax bracket went down, and any american who works is included in the lower brackets where the rate went down. They are deliberate liars.

Yes, tax cuts do help everyone in the short term but long term there are some big consequences that hurt the middle and poor. In addition, the tax cuts that Trump generated helped the rich much more than the middle and poor class and that causes income inequality to soar, which is always a big negative to the nation overall.

Tax cuts can have negative effects on the economy and public services. These effects include:

• Increased budget deficits
  Tax cuts that aren't financed by spending cuts can lead to higher federal borrowing, which can increase the budget deficit.
• Reduced long-term growth
  Increased budget deficits can slow long-term economic growth by reducing the amount of capital available for private investment.
• Reduced national saving
  Increased budget deficits can reduce national saving and raise interest rates.
  
  
• Reduced state revenues
  Tax cuts can reduce state revenues, which can limit funding for public services like schools.
• Damaged public services
  Tax cuts can lead to cuts in school funding, higher public college tuition, and weakened income supports.
• Reduced tax revenues
  Tax cuts can reduce tax revenues, which can lead to raiding the Social Security Trust Fund.

Tax cuts can also benefit certain groups of people more than others. For example, the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act of 2017 benefited business owners and executives more than average workers.

And yet...

Any tax cuts increases revenue, every mther fking time you stupid fk.

I know. I included a link upthread showing that those in the lowest tax brackets (the working class) had 3x the percentage cut from their taxes than the rich, and that idiot switches gears and then claims cutting taxes from the working class HURTS them.

So which is it? First the liars say that only rich got cuts, and then when you show them that the working and middle class got even more cuts, they say that will hurt them.

It’s clear that they were counting on stupid, gullible, and/or ignorant voters to fall for their lies, but the election is over and Trump won, thank Gd. So why do they continue to lie?

No, I wouldn't work for Joe Biden, Kamala Harris, Gavin Newsome, or Karen Bass. Would you ?

First of all, if you look you can find something wrong/bad in every person as everyone that is human has some wrong/bad in them. You showing me the bad makes no difference. What does make a difference is who has more wrong/bad than right/good in them. That is who you choose

Ever got married? Remember when the oath you took "for good or bad" was stated? That is life.

Secondly, I don't have to work for anyone as I work for myself and have done it for many years. Nonetheless, if I had to work for someone, I would work with the one that has the least bad and the most good and the moment I did that, I would key on the good and ignore the bad.

Trump is the worst choice, so if I had to choose, it would be those you mention

Here is some data that needs to be considered

Trump selects record-breaking number of billionaires for his administration​

Here is the video with the news



One thing stated in the first few minutes of the video is that the amount of net worth of these individuals chosen by Trump is 84 times greater than the net worth of all Biden cabinet members or those chosen by Biden to run the country,

This OP is all about whether rich people can actually relate to and empathize with the problems of the middle and poor class, which is 98% of the population.

This news makes that question even more relevant

Nonetheless and within this news, another big issue is being bandied about and that is Social Security and Medicare and the future of thos. This came out 3 days ago:

Republicans are far from done targeting Medicare, Social Security​

Donald Trump claims Social Security and Medicare will be left alone. Congressional Republicans appear to have a very different agenda in mind.

Part of the problem is that there’s often an enormous gap between what the president-elect says he’ll do and what he actually does. Making matters worse, his record on the issue isn’t nearly as sterling as he likes to pretend.

And then, of course, there are congressional Republicans to consider. Last week, for example, Republican Rep. Richard McCormick of Georgia also appeared on Fox Business and said, “We’re gonna have to have some hard decisions. We’ve gotta bring in the Democrats and talk about Social Security, Medicaid, Medicare. There’s hundreds of billions of dollars to be saved, and we know how to do it. We just have to have the stomach to actually take those challenges on.”

and then this article

Trump’s plan for Social Security risks undermining its future​

On the campaign trail, Donald Trump promised to end taxes on Social Security benefits. Many seniors naturally responded positively to this idea, and he was rewarded with their votes. It’s easy to see why many would agree with this idea on the surface. After all, workers already pay taxes on their earnings throughout their careers. These taxes are used to fund future Social Security benefits. Retirees would be excused for thinking that they’re being taxed twice.

However, the reality is far more complicated — and potentially disastrous. By law, taxes on Social Security benefits are funneled back into the Social Security and Medicare trust funds. Ending this revenue stream would have serious financial consequences, accelerating the insolvency of both programs. This would put the benefits that millions of American seniors depend on at grave risk.

Have you ever considered that having people who can't be bribed or bought in government is a REALLY GOOD THING?
