Oh please.
So people on this board who objected to being raped by ObamaCare were and are guilty only thinking for themeleves?
Moreover, you don't know me. You don't know my friends and family members who will be affected by this tax increase.
And furthermore, there are many Freepers on this board who have raised the same issues with this "tax cut" as I have.
The truth is the vast majority of Americans understand less about finances and economics than they do about geography. This ignorance is paramount for our federal leviathan’s continued operation. Arguing about specific cases or attempting to “educate” people is what the elites want—it keeps the hoi-poloi busy and has little or no real effect.
Most people are fine with being screwed as long as it’s their team doing the screwing. Until the people realize their are no teams, the show can go on. Welcome to the other side of the curtain.
“And furthermore, there are many Freepers on this board who have raised the same issues with this “tax cut” as I have.”
So? Just what does Obamacare have to do with this discussion? FWIW I was on Medicare Advantage, and my insurer simply cancelled my policy in response to Obamacare’s outrageous provisions, forcing me to seek new insurance. But I fixed my own problem and now I have an even better HC plan. And it’s the same with income taxes. Will there need to be adjustments, sure! Will some people have to figure out different mechanisms to resolve their personal tax circumstances? Yes. Is there a possibility of some changes in the RE market as a consequence of the new tax legislation? Possibly. But if we all sit around and pi$$ and moan about how each of us is adversely affected by this change, NOTHING GET’S DONE for us as a country. Furthermore as one legislator I saw remarked, there will be more changes to the tax code coming. But they won’t be coming if we manage to turn the Congress back over to the RATS for doing NOTHING!
The bill was drafted by the corrupt, every-lying Congress,
led by the serial liars McConnell and the GOP.
Therefore, it is not really fair to blame Pres. Trump,
because the scum bags in Congress
(who deserve to be decimated
on the steps of the Capitol by the People for their
Treason, and coverup, and abuse of the IRS, etc. etc.)
did this on their own, and in part to hurt the President.
They always work to hurt the President the American
people chose in Nov. 2016.
