Trumps Tax Cut Came Up Very Short Of Promised Benefit

Do you even know how to calculate your taxes? Mine went down significantly with the Trump tax cut and I am certainly a middle class earner.
I bet you don't even pay taxes do you mooch?
/-----/ No, skewes only knows how to parrot propaganda from left-wing sources. I doubt he even pays income taxes.
 
When Donald Trump came into office, he did so in an election that also gave Republicans a four-seat edge in the Senate and a whopping 47-seat advantage in the House. For two years, Republicans had nearly free rein to do whatever they wanted, and what they wanted was a massive tax cut for wealthy Americans and corporations.

Former Speaker of the House Paul Ryan sold the package as a “middle-class tax cut,” but the truth was the bill got rid of medical deductions used by millions of lower-income Americans to make room for massive corporate tax breaks. Ryan and other Republicans predicted that the tax cut would more than pay for itself, generating $1 trillion in economic growth. Trump called it “rocket fuel” for the economy.

The so-called “Tax Cuts and Jobs Act” passed with only Republican votes in the House and Senate, and almost from the beginning, it was clear that the bill was not what they had claimed. More than 60% of the savings went to people at the top of the income ladder. Revenues fell even more than the Congressional Budget Office had predicted before the law passed. Republicans behind the bill were forced to admit that it might never pay off, and Ryan was left bragging about a school secretary who was “pleasantly surprised” by a $1.50 weekly raise.

And now, after six years, the National Bureau of Economic Research has completed the most detailed, in-depth analysis of the results of the Trump tax cut. And what the nonprofit found was what seemed obvious before the bill was passed: It may have stimulated some corporate growth, but it ballooned the debt while producing a fraction of predicted benefits.


There is no benefit. Imagine that.
LOL. So, now you are admitting that it was a benefit, just not as big of a benefit as Trump advertised. Baby steps.

Yep. The orange bag of shit was a terrible *pResident.
 
Did you miss the part where Republicans admitted it didn't work?

Damn. You are a bigger idiot than I thought.

And we all know your low rent ass didn't get any benefit from it.
Poor skrewey....don't worry, Haley will get a talking head gig on one of the Dimtard shows you can see her there.

quit breeding 10 children from 5 different fathers when you have no husband and never worked a day in your life.

You mean there's no benefit for the Marxist state. There is indeed benefit to the individual tax payer. Not something that the Marxist mindset is willing to accept.

Yeah, and Trump will probably say his tax cuts were amazing, because for Trump, I'm sure they were amazing.
 
The Trump tax cut gave us the most robust economy of my life time.... how easy libs forget...
Bingo! Not only did everyone who pays taxes get to keep more of their own money but it poured rocket fuel on the economy. Trump is one of the few leaders who knows that our only hope at this point is to grow our way out of the financial hole these shit for brains politicians have borrowed and spent us into. Spending cuts and tax increases is like shooting spit wads at that problem.

And nothing has changed since last March; Republicans continue to be incapable of sound, responsible governance – their nomination of Trump is further proof of that.

A small budget cut here, a small tax increase there, is the best way out of the debt mess. We're like a person stuck in quicksand. Pull him out too fast and you'll rip him apart. Slow and easy does it.
