Because with a $20T debt, we can't even afford to support our legal citizens. Why should we provide for people who break our laws? (And yes, illegal entry is a criminal action, and the costs associated with these illegal aliens result in a net cost of about $100B a year.) And his reversal of regulations, particularly those associated with time-consuming red tape, has freed up $4B to small businessss. And the corporate tax rate drop - even the anticipation of it - has increased the value of companies significantly and sent the market up 25%. |
Thoughts on the proposed tax changes and impact on the deficit? |
Hello rude liberal. You are an anonymous person posting on a gossip forum where anything goes and you care about grammar? How dumb of you. I will type and iber speed and not care wtf you think of me! |
I am a new poster not the pp and just sharing my experience with illegals. Try and keep uo! |
Pro-tip: when a poster starts with "I am...." and then follows up with something incongruous they're sitting in a troll factory in Russia. |
Tip: when a poster makes reference to trolls and Russia, he is a liberal with has no substance to back up a debate and resorts to a meaningless retort. |
Here is the issue
https://www.axios.com/mckinsey-automation-may-throw-800m-people-out-of-work-by-2030-2513416488.html Many sci-fi movies shows a future with robots and AI doing all of the menial jobs and a severe underclass. How do we adjust our society for that future world? Is cutting off education and job training and health care the way to ensure the lower and middle classes have a shot when there are no jobs because what would have been available to garner income will be done by robots? |
Brexit was clearly influenced by Russian bots. Catalan was clearly influenced by Russian bots Our net neutrality rulemaking is being influenced by Russian bots (https://www.wired.com/story/bots-broke-fcc-public-comment-system/) It is having a direct impact on our global standing and our President is doing nothing about it. We are becoming a province of Russia. Are you okay with that? |
Tea Party fought against e-verify. The overwhelmingly majority R farmers support foreign workers, especially illegal ones. Heck, Trump himself loves visa workers. Google how many companies have been fined for hiring illegal immigrants, and what state they are located in. HINT: the biggest is in a red state. |
Trump increased H2B visas by another 15K in his first few days in office. Hatch and Rubio (Rs) have supported H1Bs visas. Please get your head out of the sand. It's businesses, regardless of political affiliation, that takes advantage of foreign workers. And you can thank the conservative SCOTUS for banning campaign finance reform which the Dems pushed for that limits big money donors in politics. Again, get your head out of the sand. And I was trying to be polite here. |
That's nice grandstanding, but even smart conservatives appreciate when people can write clearly enough to be understood. I guess you don't care that you don't seem to have that skill, but then again, maybe you don't really have anything important to say. |
Would still love to get your opinion on the proposed tax plan. |
There are aspects of it I don't like, but nothing is perfect. It will still reduce taxes for most middle class people (real middle class....not the upper-income DCUM crowd who calls themselves middle class). As far as the $1.7T additional debt over 10 years, it's a drop in the bucket to the 9T that Obama added. If the D's weren't worried about that increase, why are they all of sudden worried about a much lesser increase? Plus, as the economy expands (it already has....to 3%), jobs are returned due to the lowered corporate rate and repatriation, the tax base will increase. We can't afford to run the government when half the people aren't paying in. |

So $1.7T to help out the billionaires is cool, but if a tiny fraction of that supports undocumented people you're against it? Obama was trying to pull us out of a recession (thanks!), not just pad the pockets of his friends. And I'm sorry but are you saying you think trickle down works? Haven't you been paying attention over the last 30 years? |
