Trump administration officials conceded this week that the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act failed to accomplish its stated goals, and there would need to be further labor deregulation and additional tax cuts to achieve said goals.

Quick poll: do you think it’s a good idea to double down on further tax cuts, and do you think it would work this time?

Trickle down economics has been a proven disaster every time it’s been tried, so we should totally do more of it. Then let’s all cry about the debt as if the two aren’t related. “Conservatives” lol.

I don’t know what boogey man you are chasing. I never spoke of who gets a tax cut.

Working class citizens deserve a tax cut. Corporations and richer folk deserve a lower tax rate without tax loopholes, incentives whatever.

You could make the top rate and corporate 70% people aren’t going to pay it in the current system. I wouldn’t be surprised if amazon still paid zero.

what Reagan inherited from Carter . Imagine buying a house or car and paying over 20 percent on interest rates.
