IRS data proves Trump tax cuts benefited middle, working-class Americans most

[Papageorgio]

The last time we had anywhere near a balanced budget, we cut spending and increased taxes.

Raising taxes works fine.

“Waiting for the positive effects”. God. You know you sound like a sucker, right?

When did we cut spending and raise taxes?

 

[Nostra]

Don’t get bogged down in a stupid culture war. This isn’t about that. It’s about whether deficits go up or down with tax cuts.

Tax cuts always result in more revenue, so if deficits go up it is because of too much spending, Dumbass.

the tax cuts were terrific. we need more

Republicans’ 2017 tax reform law did exactly what was promised: It lowered taxes for all income groups.

I get so tired of this crap. You would think the Left would say yay, instead they say nay.

It is past a joke. The Left has painted a picture; reality or not, and either we show it for what it is, or let them continue lying like dogs in the street.

Nothing against any conservative in this thread, but this is why we lose! Just look at what they are saying, and yet, the whole damn government proves that they are lying, yet they have a platform. And dumb people buy it, because they WANT to believe it.

We have a window in 2022, and 2024. That is it, after that, it is Katie bar the door if we fail. If we do not vote; even if we have to crawl through glass, then we deserve what we get.

Our children and grandchildren will curse us! If we fail, we let them down. That is reality, and you take it for what it is worth.

VOTE, or let the Left tell you, your children, and your grandchildren, anything they want.

I can NOT say what your vote means any stronger than what I just did, and I wish you the very best of luck.

Are you sure you aren’t thinking about Obama’s reforming Medicare being called death panels?

clinton admitted he raised taxes too high, after the american people gave the gop congress, and then taxes were cut

Are you sure you aren’t thinking about Obama’s reforming Medicare being called death panels?

no, no i’m not. Obama expanded medicare, after he even admitted it was the largest driver of debt

paul krugman was the one that highlighted death panels were necessary

Provide the data, liar.

Never enough to cover the cost of tax cuts.

There is no free lunch. The Laffer curve is a myth conservatives tell themselves to justify cuts and deficits.

The laffer curve is a bad joke.

Yeah, that luxury tax increase on yachts worked. If the goal was to eliminate almost every job building yachts in America.
