Got a fact for you Just heard a repeat of McConnell saying this is a great MIDDLE CLASS tax cut OH MY!!
Republicans defend that 100% bullshit?? Are you all brain dead ? Zombies?
This is from
extremely left-wing NPR:
Ryan rarely misses a chance to note his roots in blue-collar Janesville, Wis., and the bill does reduce tax rates for the middle class.
It’s safe to say you’re not even remotely getting an accurate report from NPR and even they are forced to report that the bill does in fact reduce taxes for the middle class.
FACT CHECK: How Does Paul Ryan's Case For Tax Cuts Match The Facts?

The Republican tax bill, which Congress sent to President Trump on Wednesday, would give most Americans a tax cut next year, according to a new analysis. However, it would by far benefit the richest Americans the most. Meanwhile, many lower- and middle-class Americans would have higher taxes a decade from now ... unless
a future Congress extends the cuts.
The average household would get a tax cut of $1,610 in 2018, a bump of about 2.2 percent in that average household's income, according to a report released Monday by the Tax Policy Center, a nonpartisan think tank that has been critical of the tax overhaul plan.

However, extremes make averages, and the benefits would be much larger for richer households. A household earning $1 million or more would get an average cut of $69,660, an income bump of 3.3 percent. Compare that with the a tax cut of $870, or 1.6 percent, for the average household earning $50,000 to $75,000.
