well i rarely reply to a libtard like you but i find this interesting.
i am what's called a high earner, if you use above 100k as the classic benchmark. i'll make 115k this year. and on that .. according to this i'll pay 28% on that money
https://taxfoundation.org/2017-tax-brackets/
28% $91,900 to $191,650
in 2018 i'll pay 24% on the same money ..
https://www.fool.com/taxes/2017/12/1...if-the-go.aspx
24% $82,500-157,500
so. i'm getting a 4% tax break on gross income of 115k. are u gonna say i'm too rich for a tax break??
well are ya? ProfessorShitforBrains?

Corporations are getting a 14 % tax cut, how is that fair? Then you have to consider all the other tax giveaways to the wealthy such as , carried interest, estate tax changes. If you did a pie chart of all the tax money given away it would be heavily shaded to the wealthy, you have a nice income but your not considered one of the wealthy, we are talking people that earn millions, they got the biggest advantages in the tax scam, you got a bone thrown at you to keep you happy to take the attention away from the massive theft of money moving to the wealthy, it’s a reverse Robin Hood redistribution of wealth.
The conversation behind closed doors probably went something like this:
How can we get away with giving corporations and millionaires and billionaires massive savings on their wealth while keeping the negative feedback at a minimum?
Answer:
Well the only way is to give the others some token tax break too to shut them up, so yes I guess we have to give them a little tax break.
Do you think they will notice the vast majority of the debt we are creating will be going to payback our billionair doners? And what about all the debt how will we pay it down once we redistribute all this wealth to the wealthy?
Answer:
Don’t worry, they are pretty stupid and will be happy to get anything no matter how small, then we just tell them that the money redistributed to our billionaire friends is a good thing for them, the uneducated always fall for that and they are our voters. Then down the road a few years when all the backlash blows over we will end the tax cuts automatically in the bill. Then the debt that was created we can re coup by taking good subsides from the poor and end that awful health program for poor children, that will get us a bundle , if there is any excess we will send more to the Koch brothers, after all they bought us and put us here,
So asshole keep your little 4 % tax savings while it last and be happy and keep your mouth shut, that’s exactly what they want you to do!
