As is my hobby, I channel surf after a major political
announcement or
news, just to get a feel on how the cable networks react.

So, after today's announcement of the proposed new tax rates, the
panel
on FoxNews were kicking around how it will help individuals, small
businesses and large businesses. The focus of their discussion was
how
and why the new tax rate plan would benefit the economy overall and
create more jobs.

Switch to MSNBC:

Here the larger panel of pundits were focusing (and speculating) on
how
the new tax rates will benefit Donald Trump. Period. That's all
they
were talking about.


Like you, Fox has bought into the Trump bull****. MSNBC wants to know
how many millions the Trumpsters will make off of this, what it
will do
to the deficits, and how it will devastate what little remains of the
social safety net, science, enforcement of anti-pollution and other
citizen safety laws.


BTW, this wasn't his budget request. It was his proposal for lowering
taxes. The rich still pay the highest percentage by far. It really
applies to middle class individuals, Sub-S sorporations and large
corporations as an incentive to base operations in the USA, expand and
hire more Americans. A one time tax will apply for those corporations
with their holdings overseas and then a 15 percent (as proposed) tax
thereafter.

This is very good for the economy of the USA.


Really? What about the deficit?

His Treasury guy (forget his name) claims the new tax rates will produce
something like 5 Trillion in revenues over 5 years. It's a start.




That's hilarious.


Why's that? I can understand why it could. A robust, growing economy
is the largest revenue generating source. Taxes aren't even close.


Trump's tax cuts will simply put more money in the hands of the rich,
weaken the country and further devastate the lower and middle income
families. All that will trickle down is ****.


You best cover your head, Krause!



Harry's claims are pure BS. His claim that the House and Senate
investigations into Russiagate is being drawn out because the
Republicans chair the committees is pure BS as well.
The Democrats would be screaming bloody murder, especially those on the
respective committees. None are complaining, probably because they have
yet to find anything to complain about or report.


Harry knows. He's a narcissist, like Trump. He needs attention. The wilder his claims, the more
attention he gets. Once you put the facts in front of him, as you did earlier, he will jump on
another bandwagon.
