          Which is surprising his music outside The Smiths was never any good...

                For all those opposed to the tax cuts/restructuring... Have you been calling and writing your Washington representatives advising them to oppose this legislation and demanding that your taxes be increased at all costs..?

                What is your personal, current effective tax rate..? What tax reform would you support..?

                  We need to go back to the Eisenhower era tax rates. And make that retroactive, in the case of inheritance leeches such as the Kochs and the Waltons.

                  It's not a coincidence that no significant infrastructure has been built in this country since 1980. It was the BCE/Reagan regime that started this Trickle Down/Supply Side/Two Santa Claus/Reverse Robin Hood bullshit, and by the end of that senile old bastard's term it should have been obvious it wasn't working.

                    Ford I think, occasionally... you are bright enough and old enough to understand that the Reagan era tax restructuring did not show their full effect/impact within the time frame of his presidential term. The economics of this country don't turn on a dime or within a couple of years. The cumulative impact wasn't fully realized until Clinton was president and we were able to balance the budget based on the economic growth that started with Reagan's cuts and regulatory restructuring.

                    The global economy today and what it was in the 50's when the Eisenhower era tax rates were in place won't work and applying it retroactively is a foolish pipe dream. You should know that applying something that punitively impact the Kochs and the Waltons won't do a damn thing good for anyone paying taxes on working wages compared to global corporate economics.

                    Since you don't appear to be someone living a life of luxury based on your corporate earnings... what would you support that would directly impact your bottom line..?

                    The reason I ask this is every person I pose the question to, that opposes the proposed tax cuts, would like their effective rate reduced and can not come up with any reasonable excuse to pay more... Can you?

                        Zah, the tin foil hat wearing conspiracy theorist snowflakes don’t spend enough time in reality, to answer a question like that.

                          If you are one of the people that will really benefit from this then you should be paying all the hosting costs yourself!

                            Yep... imagine the stampede that will occur in February/March 2018... when all these snowflakes flock to their therapists because they can't cope with their net take-home pay increasing due to the tax cuts. Don't overlook the horror when job growth explodes and employers start raising wages. It'll be dark times, indeed...

                              Oh, fuck you. That is a Republican myth and you fucking know it. There are no employers because there are no jobs. Trump's buddies moved them all to Mexico (need to remind you of Carrier, cocksucker?) or China. You show me quality link and statistics of economic and wage growth in the past 25 years in this country and I'll show you prosperity. Go fuck yourself, you Walmart Cheerios eating F A T fuckwit.

                                What about a couple years down the road when they expire? As the corporate tax rate and lowered one for the rich don't?

                                This bill is nothing but pissing on the middle class with a temp bribe...

                                And even Obama agrees that the corporate tax rate needs cutting and readjusting, but this is a complete whoreathon giveaway in which they give nothing back and have no accountability. It's great for hedge-fund managers and and some shareholders, not for Main St....

                                Did I say "whore?" Well, whores make you pay for it!
