We as tax payers will make up the difference from the lack of taxes the corporations aren't paying thanks to your pres.
So yes, it is socialism for billionaire businesses..
(Its fox news so you know its true)
Amazon earned $5.6B in 2017, but paid no federal taxes

Didnt the individual tax payers just receive a nice tax cut? They need to eliminate the Earned Income credit rule. People that paid no taxes should not get a refund. Plain and simple. Unemployment is very low. Get your lazy butt out there, get a job and pay taxes.

My president reduced my tax rate and my overall tax responsibility. I don't think you understand basic math.

I understand math. If your president reduces your tax by 200 dollars, he's reduced your rate. But what you fail to understand, or unwilling to admit out loud, is the corporations and millionaires/billionaires received a FAR higher tax rate reduction than you did. The stepchild received an extra piece of cheese on his sandwich while the blood children received an extra steak on their plates. 2 slices of cheese > 1 slice of cheese. There's your basic math. You know your president took the working class Americans. You know it and I know it. If Kelly and Conway every quits, you'd be perfect...
Yes, he gave big cuts to stimulate the economy and that's exactly what happened. Has caused many companies to give raises and bonuses to keep employees as there is now a surplus of jobs and companies are competing for workers. Better for everyone. The top income earners pay most of the income tax anyways. Stop being jealous because you've got a penny and someone else has a nickel.

Like Apple:
"The decision comes 11 months after Apple CEO Tim Cook disclosed plans to open a major office outside California on the heels of a massive tax cut on overseas profits, which prompted the company to bring about $250 billion back to the U.S."

And what you don't comprehend is that the 'blood children' are the reason the 'stepchild' gets that extra slice of cheese.
You have to have a viable business to provide incomes for others. Government will (historically)waste the money, businesses will expand to capture more business, creating more income for more workers.
And stop thinking that companies will use the savings to grow and expand their workforce at a time when all indicators point to a significant economic slowdown . The only think that came out of the Trump tax cut was a rapid acceleration of stock buy backs. The tax cut was nothing more than a short term economic stimulus that will be offset by higher interest rates driven by increased federal borrowing. Fedex stock is not down by one third because of a strong economic forecast.
Company stock buy backs in 2018 exceeded one trillion dollars a new record. Look, they made it clear that this is where the money was going long before the bill was even signed into law.

Our top marginal rate fell by 6 percentage points. A guy who makes a million bucks saw his top rate fall by 2.6 percentage points. YAWN. Regardless, I have no interest in keeping up with everyones' taxes.
You see the tax code as an instrument of retribution. I don't.

Well bacha, we've got more people working than ever before and unemployment is at or near a 50 year low. I don't think "They will use money to hire people" is the argument you want to make, especially after they've been doing it for a while.

I guess the BILLION $ Fedex is spending on the Memphis Hub is fake news.

I was on fire today on the course. I almost shot par. On ONE hole anyway. You need a hobby besides being miserable all the time.
