Can someone explain?

I thought liberals wanted their taxes raised to support those in need. All talk?

Only with other people's money.

You are claiming this budget will send the PP's taxes to those in need?

It allows those making less than 90k to keep a substantial portion of their OWN earnings. So yes. Of course, as a liberal, all you know of is TAKING money from A and giving it to B

So only those making less than 90k are getting a tax cut?

No. There are other changes. But this portion is a huge boon to low income earners

What are the other changes? I will be paying more. Which I'm fine with as long as the momey is going to those in need. Who else will be paying more / paying less, if there are indeed "other changes"?

If tax cuts are so good, why aren't they good for everyone? Why are they only good for some people?

And this is the truth!

The outcry among liberals because it will cost them a few dollars surfaces their hypocrisy.

Yet none of you conservatives will admit where the extra tax dollars are going. Why is that?

I'm still waiting for you libs to tell us how much extra you're willing to pay. About three cents?

Um, crickets.

You will be paying more. The money will be going to a paper pusher to decide. You're fine with it either way, because the IRS is telling you to be fine with it. Now shut it and pay your taxes. We don't care about your opinion, just pay.


Don't you have some ANTIFA march to go to?

"We have to understand that the owners of our businesses — the people we work for — are richer than us. They pay more taxes," Paul said. "But if you lower their taxes, they will either buy stuff or hire more people. If you raise their taxes, it goes into the nonproductive economy, which is Washington, D.C., and it will be squandered."

"So really, even if rich people get a tax cut, we should all stand up and cheer because it means more jobs for us because you're leaving more money in the private sector," Paul continued. "So I'm one of the few that will stand up on TV and say everybody's taxes should go down, including the wealthy."

What a naive/disnigenous idiot Rand Paul is. The rich are certainly not going to dispense any extra money. It's all going to remain safely in their hands. A toddler would know this.

Then the owners (interesting word choice) are free to apply the same logic to the wages of their workers. Pay workers less so they can hire more.

If you keep cheering for it, eventually you’ll come to like the idea of NO pay for workers. You’re already calling that “dignity”.

Um, crickets.

Talking to conservatives is like banging one's head on the wall. On about eighteen threads liberals have patiently explained we'll gladly pay more IF that money goes to real stuff: cleaning up the environment, stopping climate change, fixing infrastructure, strengthening the support network for those with less. I'd pay an additional 10K.

BUT - and here's the brick wall parts A and B - this gives more money to the super wealthy and corporations and this thread isn't about that.

So you are for cuts at NIH?

I have voted for both GOP (nationally) and Dems (congress/local) over the years, Reagan, both Bushes, etc.

I will never vote for the GOP again.

Well then Write a check to the treasury. You're still under the tax structure and spending of the Obama days, because the present administration's bill hasn't passed. Now get that checkbook out AND WRITE THE CHECK. Stop yakking and start doing.

Is that part in the Republican budget?

No the Republican budget is all about taking from those in need and giving to billionaires.
