It will be difficult if not impossible to raise taxes to resolve federal spending and revenue imbalances. And the tax cuts are going to lead to massive cuts in social security and medicare, further shattering what is left of the safety net. And there will be less federal funds to stimulate infrastructure rebuilding, innovation, and disaster relief. Where did you get the "trillion dollar *annual* budget deficit resulting from the Tax Act? Last I heard was that if the economic stimulus resulting from the tax changes has *no* affect on the deficit (unlikely),Â* it may add $1.5 to $1.7 trillion (depending on House version vs Senate version) over a *ten* year period. My mistake...mind wandered while typing because I was reading some bloody awful commentary from Chuck Grassley. Right, it's only an addition to the deficit of 100+ billion a year. Chump change. Ok. Thought for a moment we were going to have to call another "Fake News" event and suspend you without pay for a month or two. |
