No different than if someone was to cause havoc in a theater or calling 911 under false pretenses.

logically the tax cuts for the rich will leave no money for anything else.

FACTS. A person making a MILLION A YEAR pays MORE IN TAXES than someone making $35,000. PERIOD. No matter the DOLLARS you want to use, the PERCENTAGES OF INCOME in "Tax cuts" is FAR HIGHER for the LOW INCOME PEOPLE than the upper income people.

PERIOD!!

5% of a $35,000 income is a tax cut of $1,750. 

1% of a $1,000,000 income is $10,000. 

WHO got 5 times the CUT TO THEIR INCOME IN TAXES???

THAT'S called APPLES TO APPLES, DICKSUCKYBOY!!!

No... he can't. jerrab is your typical low life liberal. Never questions anything the FAKE news shows him; he just runs with it. I tried to give him some subtle hints (like 2017 and why would biden allow that to happen) but he is too naive to comprehend things for himself. He busted on in here with his BLATANT LIE.

He never can defend his **** and just tosses more of the same crap out as something "factual" when it's ALREADY been destroyed.

What **** idiots these LWNJs have become.

Hey moron, why not give tax cuts to the people who pay the majority of taxes?

Quit being stupid, if you can.

If I were elected Dictator, I would pass a tax on everyone who hasn't paid taxes in the past 5 years.  It will be a 75% tax to pay up for all the free **** they've already received.

But, but, but...TRUMP is cutting Medicare, and SS, and  :wah:  

Private Medicare plans will get a more than $25 billion increase in federal payments for the 2026 plan year, according to a policy finalized by the Trump administration Monday.

Trump gives Medicare Advantage a big pay boost

Anyone who can't pay the tax can work it off picking cotton and tidying up landfills.

I don't expect you be able to read this and understand it on your own without having Rachel Maddow there to help you.

I think if you at least passed 12th grade math, you would be able to understand that $60,000 is a trivial amount handed back to the 1% who already pay 45% of the grand total.

The top 1% earn 1/4 of what America earns as a whole yet they pay almost 1/2 of all the tax.

Even if Musk handed everyone a million bucks....prices everywhere would rise proportionately and within a few years those who are smarter and more skillful [than some helpless Libtard with a Gender Studies degree]    would have figured  out how to get those handouts turned over to them....[via rent increases, housing and vehicle cost increases and  services provided].....:)

Multimillionaires will be making tax policy for working Americans, most prominently by pushing through extensions of the expiring provisions of the 2017 Trump-GOP tax law that mostly help them and their wealthy donors. The average net worth of the Republicans in control of the tax-writing House Ways and Means Committee and Senate Finance Committee is nearly $15 million. The wealthiest GOP members could give themselves a roughly $1.8 million annual income tax cut and their families a potential one-time estate tax cut of $22.8 million–a potential total of $24.6 million in tax cuts if they pass legislation to extend the Trump Tax bill.“The multimillionaire Republicans in charge of these key committees cannot properly represent average Americans’ tax and spending interests,” said ATF Executive Director David Kass. “Their prioritization of extending Trump’s tax scam demonstrates their disconnect from middle and working-class constituents’ needs. While wealthy Democrats also serve on these committees, they aren’t promoting continuing the entire Trump tax legislation which primarily benefits rich individuals like them and giant corporations—legislation that would add trillions to the deficit and threaten funding for Social Security, healthcare, education,  housing and other vital public services. A system where millionaires vote for tax benefits favoring other wealthy elites undermines both our economy and democracy.”Of the 26 Republican members of the Ways and Means Committee, over two-thirds are worth more than a million dollars. Almost two-thirds of the Republicans on the Finance Committee are millionaires. Nine of the 39 GOP members of the two tax-writing panels are worth over $10 million. Vern Buchanan (FL), the highest-ranking GOP member of Ways and Means besides the chairman, is worth nearly a quarter of a billion dollars.

Agreed. The rich phookers are narcissistic pigs on a course to Let the Meek Inherit the Earth and go into orbit.
