So, the tax cut that put one to two thousand dollars back into the average American family’s pocket could be reversed and give EVERYBODY $6000 a year.

Must be some trick, that communist math.

That is EXACTLY what happened with college tuition costs once easy student loans became widely available. But empirical evidence and reason doesn't change the lefty mindset. Feelings do.

How about an alternative, everyone with a net worth over $500 million gives half to the government.
Start with Zuckerberg.

This guy is a very unserious Jack wack

A duplicitous bastard who doesn’t put his money where his mouth is by redistributing the benefits derived from the tax cuts to some very needy people

..less than a third of Americans have reaped the benefits of President Donald Trump's tax cuts.

That's BS. If you work or spend a dime of your own money, you've benefited from the tax cuts.

This guy has a net worth of more than $500 million.

Before we consider your idea of giving away other people’s money, let’s review your tax filings to determine how much in taxes you have been paying over the past 10 year period and then let’s determine how much of your wealth you have personally donated over that time, and political donations do not count.

Hi.

“argues that less than a third of Americans have reaped the benefits of the president’s tax cuts.”

If you don’t include WORKING Americans, that might be true.
Hughes knows that 95% of Americans who are working benefited from the tax cuts.

So is he lying, spreading propaganda or just plain stupid?

“less than a third of Americans have reaped the benefits of the president’s tax cuts.”

That is because a full half of the taxpayers pay NO income tax at all and 40% get a refund larger than what was withheld from their paycheck.

Think of all the nice things I could do with YOUR money!
This is blatantly stupid on its face.

Social security (which is essentially the system he’s proposing) is failing precisely because it can’t supply the people it currently has on its roles - that’s why it’s gong insolvent.

It is always interesting to examine the words used by the leftists.

Here we see them say “worker” income.

Well, they obviously aren’t going to be working, so why the use of the word?

Its a code word for proletariat. Those people that give nothing to their society but their progeny as Russell Kirk used to explain. The free grain dole the Romans used for the mob.

Communists gotta be communists.
