Who pays for the Tax Cuts?

Trump regular brags, falsely, about “The biggest tax cuts in history.” The average citizen ends up with $2,400 per year, enough for a movie and dinner. The rich will be looking for new homes in Spain. But the citizenry is happy with their temporary cuts. That is until you figure what those small cuts cost. Fewer Federal income means less money to the states, counties, cities, towns, and all they supply. Less for education and infrastructure. With less coming in, where will the dollars come from?

Income taxes in many states, Arizona included, are increasing, and other State taxes, city, county and state property taxes (which support infrastructure and education), energy taxes, utility taxes, tariffs and import duties will per going up, so will purchasing costs. 

Trump wants a thirty-cent per gallon increase in gasoline taxes. If you drive 30,000 miles per year, that increase alone will cost you an extra $9,000 per year. But remember, tax cuts you supported saved you $2,400 per year.

Trump has no clue about Middle-Class.

Are Trump’s sycophants and lemmings aware that federal employees who worked without pay or were furloughed during Trump’s insane, conniption fit, did not do it due to “…their allegiance to President Trump…,” as the thankless wretch in the Oval Office stated? They didn’t “volunteer” for this. They were threatened by firing if they didn’t show up to work. This is servitude. They blame him for their damaged credit, late-fee payments, interest loans, missed payments, meals and medical care, and more. Billionaire Wilber Ross said he “doesn’t understand this. Why don’t they simply go to the bank and get a loan? The banks will give them a loan.” Many, if not most, federal employees live paycheck to paycheck.  Trump told them to “make an arrangement with the grocer. Grocery stores will give you groceries if you tell them you’ll pay them when you get paid.” Federal employees took an oath to protect the Constitution, not Trump. Trump and his cronies have no idea how the Midd...

VERY IMPORTANT! - trump successfully diverted attention all week with his false rhetoric, tweets and insults, defaming veterans, Puerto Ricans, widows of dead soldiers, a Black Congresswoman, and who knows how much more, while his new, "old friend," Mitch McConnell set his Mongol Army on American Citizens. trump is the beginning of the final chapter of the Republican effort to show, Democracy doesn't work. The Country doesn't work. To bring down the Whole Country and Stephen  Bannon STATED VERBALLY and in PRINT he wanted to do. Reduce the Federal Government to a small "caretaker" government, where the citizens MUST rely strictly on their own for survival, no matter the circumstances. NO ENTITLEMENTS of any source (MEDICARE and SOCIAL SECURITY ARE NOT ENTITLEMENTS.  BEWARE OF trump's TRICKS. Now you can see how they work.  > trump did his job. While he diverted the country with his insults and inane comments, lies and B.S., and the media assist...

Hypocrites or not? You decide..

. SHELDON METZ · SUNDAY, MAY 1, 2016 To my ultra-religious friends who quote bible passages and support Trump, how about hearing this when he speaks on TV? Actual quotes fro a rally: DROPPING THE F - BOMB: "The Donald," as he is known, enters the arena, more as a billboard for self inflicted controversy. The supreme aggrandizer, somehow, stays in the game. Willing to use opening phrases such as, "Listen You Mother F*ckers …," which is cool, if your, you know, watching a film by Martin Scorsese, a play by David Mamet or listening to a rap song by Ice Cube, but as a presidential candidate, this is not cool at all. Once he gets a taste for the reaction, the audiences nervous laughter, the cussing continues. On Foreign Policy: "We build a school, we build a road, they blow up the school, we build another school, we build another road they blow them up, we build again, in the meantime we can't get a f*cking school in Brooklyn."
