You can't make this up. They literally want to halt the economy in its tracks.

https://www.forbes.com/sites/ryanellis/2018/03/09/democrats-release-tax-hike-plan/#1fa9e63e7b9e

Here are a few of the gems.

- Increase the top marginal income tax rate from 37 percent to 39.6 percent. This nearly 3 percentage point increase in the top personal rate is not only a hike in the top bracket levy, but it's also a direct tax increase on small and mid-sized businesses. The 30 million companies which are organized as sole proprietorships, partnerships, Subchapter-S corporations, and LLCs pay their business taxes on their owners' 1040 personal tax returns. Hiking the top tax rate is a small business tax increase.

- Increase the corporate income tax rate from 21 percent to 25 percent.

- Bring back the alternative minimum tax (AMT) for 4 million families.

- Cut the "death tax" standard deduction in half.

Basically if you're a small business owner, or a dual income family, FUCK YOU. - Insincerely, The Democrats.

The Democrat View of the Economy:

1. The American Dream is over, never to return.
2. Good paying Middle Class Blue Collar jobs are done with, never to return.
3. Many other jobs will quickly fall to Automation.
4. Therefore, we need to help millions of immigrants achieve the American Dream that doesn't exist, taking the handful of remaining decent blue-collars Jobs that are on the verge of extinction.
5. Any one who disagrees denies this unavoidable reality is a Bigoted, Ignorant, Xenophobic Racist.

It's the audacity of hope, you nazi.

Just everyone who brings home a regular paycheck.

Good tap dance . The question was how much of the tax cut is going to people to use for da to da activities/bills.

I'll repeat it again, since you seemed to miss it the FIRST time.

It may not be big to you, but people getting an extra $30 in their check of $500 pays for a tank and a half of gas each week.

Shall I help with what percentage of their check that is?

Ok. Let's say it's 100K mortgage. The mortgage cost still outweighs the tax benefit. Let's assume this person was planning to buy a house this year.

Why do you hate renters?

You never answered any time. Repeating a non answer doesn't make it any more of an answer. Would you like me to repeat the question typing slower and using smaller words?
