Uh who do you think creates jobs? Businesses do. Trump won to get the economy going. Most people in states with state income taxes will not see their taxes go up (present company included and I have to file in two states) - only the outrageously high tax states (CA, NJ, NY etc) that didn’t vote for trump anyway would be effected. I currently itemize 35k and wouldn’t be able to itemize afterwards and my taxes drop by $2k/yr.
You didn’t answer my question. I know fully how business taxes work, I also know when you burden consumers with high taxes, you curtail spending. And regardless of whether or not most states with state income taxes will be hit as hard as CA and NY, all of them will carry the burden. Do you think Trump would have won by pushing tax realignment as a tax cut?
