"Almost entirely to the rich"..
Looks like it's NOT the rich getting a break.
This is why you're the BIGGEST TROLL on Patnet!!
Except this chart proves you're 100% WRONG:
Every one benefits, now go TROLL somewhere else.
Sniper says
Just think how all the ultra rich people benefit from that!!!
That's not proof you dolt. You just cherry picked the few good things in the bill and left out all the others. Like the removal of exemptions. And the elimination of the deduction for student loan debt.
Sniper says
And the ultra rich REALLY benefits from that!!
No, the ultra rich benefit from the elimination of the AMT and estate tax. And notice they left in the deductibility of charitable donations--that is the among the ultra rich favorite tax avoidance schemes.
No, it IS the rich getting the break. I showed you how.

Yes, you've said that. I'm asking what would cause you to think that? Please detail what I've said that's incorrect.
Sniper saysEvery one benefits, now go TROLL somewhere else.
lol--your own chart shows that everyone doesn't benefit. But, regardless, as I posted multiple times, it's possible for everyone to benefit AND have the vast majority of the benefits go to the ultra rich. Are you really too dim to understand that?
In the case of profit they will pay taxes and the rest goes to the owner whom is free to to with what he wants be it hookers and blow or reinvesting it into the company it is free for them to do what they want but what the most certainly do not do is invest their money into EXPENSES. They invest their money into a company and get more ownership of the company then that company has money to do with what it wants to do.
joeyjojojunior saysSo, the only thing you can find is me saying that the majority of the benefits of the tax reform is going to the rich??
You've only posted that like 25 times so far on multiple threads, can you PROVE that will be the case, so far, it's been bullshit opinions?
Of course you can't, that's the TROLL line of the day.
IF trump can't shoot poor people in the face, he should give up.
The poor never had it so good. They pay no taxes, get lots of freebies, and still get to complain.
Wish I was that poor.
+1. Those are the key to the deal and why the 1% is pushing this tax deal. The other stuff is just noise to make sure the Koch Bros. get theirs.

Hey Wookie... I'm not a bot. ;)
For a long while, the theory of economist Arthur Laffer managed to bridge that gap by contending that lower taxes led to more economic activity, which in turn expanded federal revenue.
The new House plan is no exception. Indeed, its proponents make much of keeping the top individual tax rate at 39.6 percent.
Tax plans tend to favor the wealthy.

You would think after almost 40 years where this simply didn't work someone would say the emperor has no clothes. Is it self delusion of pure hypocrisy at this point?
It works alright. The question is how much and when. Wether it's needed or not.

anonymous saysSpot on. Liberals won't be happy until the poor are given free money just to exist...oh wait.Tax plans tend to favor the wealthy.
Yah think? Maybe because they are the ones paying the majority of the taxes NOW.
I know, let's give a tax cut to the people who pay $0 in taxes now? That should really help them!
Oh wait...
anon_13ce6 saysHow about oil is he a bot?
Do dogs bark?
Losers will always hate the successful. It's that hate that blinds them from taking accountability for their own lives.
anonymous saysSpot on. Conservatives won't be happy until the rich corporations are given free money, tax breaks, incentives just to exist...oh wait.
They already are, from Obama. Can you say Tesla, Solyndra, etc.?
Liberals don't hate success. They understand that high inequality leads to a poor economy for everyone so they want to put laws into place that lead to lower inequality and a better economy.

joeyjojojunior saysjust any guy saysLosers will always hate the successful. It's that hate that blinds them from taking accountability for their own lives.
Why do conservatives always try to put emotion into the conversation?
Why do Trolls hate facts and want to spin them as emotion?

Here are the most notable changes:
- Lowers individual tax rates for low- and middle-income Americans to Zero, 12%, 25%, and 35%; keeps tax rate for those making over $1 million at 39.6%
- Increases the standard deduction from $6,350 to $12,000 for individuals and $12,700 to $24,000 for married couples.
- Establishing a new Family Credit, which includes expanding the Child Tax Credit from $1,000 to $1,600
- Preserving the Child and Dependent Care Tax Credit
- Preserves the Earned Income Tax Credit
- Preserves the home mortgage interest deduction for existing mortgages and maintains the home mortgage interest deduction for newly purchased homes up to $500,000, half the current $1,000,000
- Continues to allow people to write off the cost of state and local property taxes up to $10,000
- Retains popular retirement savings options such as 401(k)s and Individual Retirement Accounts
- Repeals the Alternative Minimum Tax
- Lowers the corporate tax rate to 20% – down from 35%
- Reduces the tax rate on business income to no more than 25%
- Establishes strong safeguards to distinguish between individual wage income and “pass-through” business income
- Allows businesses to immediately write off the full cost of new equipment
- Retains the low-income housing tax credit
A key issue will be the treatment of the state and local tax deduction, which lawmakers are proposing to cap at $10,000.
The bill also “makes no changes to the popular retirement savings options that Americans have today — including 401(k)’s and Individual Retirement Accounts, or I.R.A.s. Americans will be able to continuing making both traditional, pretax contributions and ‘Roth’ contributions in the way that works best for them.”
