Would the democrat supporters here voluntarily refuse to take the tax cuts? (healthcare, regular)

Many Democrats don't pay any income taxes. Maybe they get the EITC.

Please don’t tell me your bleeding heart can only donate $0.

You have access to my tax returns to know what I donate annually? Impressive.

Want to explain why billionaires and huge corporations need even more? If the economy is doing as well as trump keeps touting, why do they need even more? And how much of that is going to the poor? How much does trump donate to charity?

If taxes go up, then there will be less to donate.

Neither does Congress. They didn't read the bill before they passed it Sound familiar? The hypocrisy of Republicans knows no bounds. Cue the Hillary/Obama deflection in 3, 2, 1. . .

Good point. I haven't done the calculations to see how I'll be impacted yet, but as I live in a high COL area I may get a hike immediately.

Everyone who is not paying AMT or impacted by the estate tax ($10 mm or higher I believe) will pay more in the next 10 years.

I intend to keep this thread live until the tax season so that democrat supporters can post an image of their check.

Personally I would expect massive amounts of democrats and their supporters send in mountains of checks to prove Trump and Republicans wrong.

I have a better idea. When this turd of a bill does not produce the growth forecast and leaves us with a trillion plus deficit, then Trump, and all the repubs should pay the US Treasury back every penny of the deficit.

OK!

So ridiculous. Every Democrat I know is employed and the vast majority make six figures. You guys can't decide whether we're all living off the government teat or so wealthy that we're out of touch.

It's republicans who get more of a benefit from these government programs.

The Republican's aren't even pretending that it's going to reduce the deficit.
