“News makers” trying to find a wedge to beat on the “precious moderates” with for a last minute shot to stop the bill and they got it. This is all we going to hear about for the next few days. “The real estate millionaires tax cut” here it comes.

“The real estate millionaires tax cut” here it comes.”

Right. The Left hates any and all tax cuts because private wealth is contrary to their socialist model in which the state confiscates all wealth and redistributes it in return for power and control.

They can’t honestly state their true objection to tax cuts, so instead they make a fallacious argument that the tax cut is unfair because the wealthy receive a bigger share of the tax cut.

Of course the wealthy would benifit more from a tax cut; they pay far more in the first place! But this fallacy works due to a sad fact of human nature; people are easily blinded by jealousy when they have other people’s wealth rubbed in their faces 24/7.

And that’s exactly what the leftist media does: confront poor and lower middle class people with how the wealthy live, rewrite history to “explain” how at some point one of their ancestors must have been robbed by the ancestors of the wealthy, sew discontent and encourage demands for reparations.

All of this brainwashing is to distract from the common sense reality that lower taxation and regulation would be a good thing for everyone (except the governing class) and to turn the classes against each other to sabotage tax cuts and government spending cuts.

This tax cut is a good thing simply because it is a tax cut - any tax cut is good - people on FR should know better than to let the Left confuse the debate by pulling this “unfair” BS.

Support these tax cuts regardless of who benifits more, and then if you still think you are overtaxed (which you are) then start pushing for another round of tax cuts. Rinse and repeat.
