The comedy act that they call a tax cut.

The tax law is nothing more than Congress paying off their Rich donors this is common knowledge there really isn't any argument here

The tax burden has increasingly shifted to the upper income. The lower tax rates do not account for the inequality in income distribution because most of that increase is before tax income.

You need to do your homework before you post crap. Go find out what tax rates were in the 1950s

Look at this comedy response. what a joke , business say they will pass the savings on to the worker , no they won't, if they can help it. They haven't done anything of the sort since 1981. So that is a laugh. He says corporate taxes are the highest in the world, no that's just stupid. I'll give him a tip, tax rates mean nothing anywhere in the world , the effective tax rate is all that counts. ours is in no way the highest. How blind to you have to be to believe that bullshit.
The solution for company's dumping this country and going somewhere else is so simple you just have to laugh, just as the problem with illegals is a easy fix. Don't need no wall.
Ya business needs our help, that is a joke, that should have the whole country laughing. Facts , during the Obama administration, we saw the highest profits in this countries history , not by a little but by a amount that will never be repeated, the highest rate of increase of profits in history and the highest percentage of gross that was profit in history.
MY friend you have no clue what your talking about , in fact it is so ridiculous that I just have to laugh. The effective fed personal tax rate in this country is 9.5%. Tell me what you think is fair to live in the richest country in the world.

What snowflake logic. The one's that will save with the tax cuts are the one's who freely and willingly use the products and or services provided by these evil ass corporations. NEWS FLASH: Every time demonrats raise the taxes on a business.....guess who actually pays those taxes? THE CONSUMER. Dumb Asses.....high taxes are what cause and generate INFLATION. Taxes are what make a loaf of bread that once cost 50cents now cost $2.50 cents. Nothing is FREE in this nation regardless of what your communist profs tell you....THE CONSUMER pays for everything in this nation.

So....you are in your safe space IF......you are not a consumer of products, never purchase a product or service and provide EVERYTHING for YOURSELF. This generation of snowflakes is the most dependent and helpless in US History. They continue to prove they are incapable of critical independent thinking.....they have been trained to be herded around like the sheep they are...grazing off the hard work of others in their safe little pastor....until they are required to be clipped or slaughtered when their usefulness is over. Real Radicals...these snowflakes......BAHHHHHHHHHH! BAHHHHHHHHHH!!!

Leftists act as if several things are not true. 1. The money belongs to those who earned it....it does not belong to Big Brother. 2. No one is forced to use a product or service in this nation (its call FREE MARKET CAPITALISM)......well that was true until THE DEMOCRATS forced the young to redistribute their earned income to the older generator...i.e., the O.....bammmmmmmmmmy Mandate. just like in mother Russia.....Hillary might need a new hip replacement sooner than later.

"There is a common misconception that high-income Americans are not paying much in taxes compared to what they used to. Proponents of this view often point to the 1950s, when the top federal income tax rate was 91 percent for most of the decade.[1] However, despite these high marginal rates, the top 1 percent of taxpayers in the 1950s only paid about 42 percent of their income in taxes. As a result, the tax burden on high-income households today is only slightly lower than what these households faced in the 1950s."

You live in a little world that is for the brain dead , it's underneath a mushroom in the land of OZ. I've read 5 of your posts to find out that you have no clue what your talking about,it's simply gibberish that your masters tell you . Your just a slug along side the little mushroom who thinks that what stupid says is logic and what is logic is to confusing to even deal with. Your a waste. And you belong with scum bag as one of the grovelers at his feet drooling on his every word. Even though everyone who has a brain knows that his every word are lies and hate.

You're an idiot on steroids. But I have to laugh that an idiot of your stature thinks he has the slightest clue of what he emotes about.

My advice, extract your head from your asshole so that your tiny brain can get some oxygen. Dunce.

Instead of giving it to the wealthy, who already have lots of it? That is what trickle down does. Now Trumps tinkle down. Going to get a break from the tax break for private jets? http://www.newsweek.com/republican-tax-bill-gives-private-plane-owners-tax-break-714381 How about breaks for golf course owners? This bill is theft for the plutocrats, just like the Dems said it would be.

91% as mentioned several times in my previous posts. The point was that the 91% tax rate in the 1950s raised less revenue as a percent of GDP than the 39% rate today. You need to go find out what percent of all federal income taxes were paid by the upper income today than in earlier years. Hint: percent of all federal taxes is not the same thing as tax rate.

Bad information. The upper income is the only group that pays a higher share of federal income taxes than their percentage of total income. All other groups pay less than their share of income.

Nothing bad about it. You seem offended at the idea of a progressive income tax. Let's just lower taxes on the wealthy to zero and give them your wages, and they can hand you out crumbs if they feel like it. Happy now?

I said nothing suggesting I oppose the progressive income tax--biased assumption on your part. However, I am offended by those who suggest the wealthy do not pay their fair share and thus do not deserve a tax cut. They earn the largest share of income and pay the largest share of taxes, just as the progressive income taxation scheme calls for. It also relieves the bottom 50% of almost all federal income taxes giving them more income to spend plus the EITC. Sometimes tax policy should be based on what is fair, not just its effect on the economy.

You're the kind of guy who would look at a gang of 20 men with handguns about to shoot an unarmed little old lady, and say that it's not fair, the guys should get shotguns also. That's the equivalent of saying that it's the rich who need a tax cut.

The rich take an overwhelming share of the income, as I showed you. Their income has increased more than their taxation. Simple test - I'll pay 100% of your tax, if you give me your income. Deal? That's the deal they make.

Yes, the wealthy take a large share of the income and pay a large share of the taxes---exactly the way progressive taxation works. Only higher income people can get a tax cut since the bottom 40% pay -106% of federal income taxes (owe no taxes and get EITC). Somebody filled your head with populist rhetoric that is resentful of those more successful financially. They must be keeping you from being wealthy.

Your analogy is poor about paying 100% of the tax in returning for taking most of the income because they are not taking that income from others. If I double my billion dollars from stock market gains that money was not taken from somebody else.

No, I would say the little old lady needs 50 friends with shotguns.

Do you donate to the Republicans? Are you going to send the extra that you get back since you didn't donate to them?

Are you saying those that don't pay taxes should get a tax cut?

A progressive income tax should offend everyone. If the wealthier are supposed to pay a higher percentage in taxes, shouldn't they also get a higher percentage benefit for doing so? Your mindset is those that are paying the least should get the same benefit from society as those paying the most.
 
Same logic used by righties to say global warming isn't real. It is cold today, therefore no warming. An incident does not prove or disprove a rule. Did they send you a check? If you buy your own health insurance it will go up. At least 10 percent,.- Subtract that from your theoretical 2500.
