This was the ONE potential slightly positive thing about Trump and hand having a Republican president, as a rich person. Rich people taxes might not go up. Ha - Now he’s not just 99% bad, he’s making it all the way to 100%.

What exactly are my tax dollars paying for now? You’ve taken away everything useful and now my gas and groceries are going up?

Would Democrats vote for the budget if it has tax increases?

Correct! You know Trump used to be a Dem so maybe this is what we are seeing.

If he raises taxes then I will assume he is George Bush who never recover from this. The first Bush. This should make the liberals happy!!

I heard a podcast today refer to our “doll-based” economy. Made me chuckle. (It was meant to)

What tax brackets are affected. The 50-doll bracket or the 1-3 doll bracket?

oh, and they are looking at ways to raise the SALT cap.

still sorting through a number of thorny issues, such as how to raise the cap on the state and local tax deduction, or SALT.


How Democrat of them.

Trump first said he wanted the 2017 tax cuts to continue, but now he wants to raise taxes on the rich. I guess they couldn't get the math to work.

https://www.nbcnews.com/politics/congress/trump-urges-speaker-mike-johnson-raise-taxes-wealthy-rcna205698

President Donald Trump privately pressed Speaker Mike Johnson, R-La., during a phone call on Wednesday to add two additional proposals to the massive package for his agenda: raising the tax rate on the highest earners and closing the so-called carried interest loophole, according to a Republican leadership source as well as two other GOP sources familiar with the call.

The other GOP source familiar told NBC News that Trump is considering allowing the rate on individuals making $2.5 million or more annually to revert from 37% to the pre-2017 39.6% as a way to help pay for middle and working class tax cuts and protect Medicaid.

While Republicans have previously floated the idea of allowing tax rates to go up on top earners when major parts of the 2017 tax law expire at the end of this year, GOP leaders have been resistant to a tax hike on the wealthy, traditionally anathema within the party.

Trump also shot down the idea of increasing taxes on millionaires last month, saying it would be "disruptive."
