Tax cuts?
4/22/2019 9:38:09 AM
Have you noticed you didn't get as much of a tax return as last year?
Only 17% of taxpayers think they got a tax cut. That includes those who support the liar who was in Minneapolis claiming he was responsible for the robust economy. Before Trump's tax cut, Pence talked to reps from various corporations. He asked them what they would do with their fourteen percent tax cut. They uniformly told him they would buy back their stock and give the rest to their stock holders, which would not help the economy as they aren't spending the money. Trump also claims credit for the resurgence of the steel industry on the Iron Range in Minnesota. Taconite mines began reopening only months after Trump took often, mainly because Obama had already passed tariffs on Chinese steel because of dumping. The Chinese didn't complain because they knew what they were doing was dirty pool and because Obama did not go overboard, causing grief for farmers as did Trump. This man is a compulsive liar. If you are a union member or a former union member, you have no business voting for a union-hating Republican in the first place. In the next year world banks should reconsider the US credit rating as our national debt keeps going up at an exponential rate. We're about due for a recession as we haven't had one in over 90 months, and the man in the wig hat hasn't done anything to prevent one. Ordinarily a stimulus plan might be necessary. That won't happen because it appears we have a drunken sailor pretending to be president.
