I’d gladly give up that “Trump Change” so that more people can go see a doctor when they need to.

Move to Ca. and give up your citizenship then get on the Medicaid for illegals.
I hear they have some tent spaces left in the larger cities in the down town area.

Problem solved. That was easy. I'll let you know where to send the check.

“Because of recent changes made to the federal tax law, customers will directly benefit. What Tampa Electric would have paid in corporate income taxes will instead be used to the cost of restoring power after Hurricane Irma and several other earlier named,” said Tampa Electric.

They wren't going to restore power after Irma without the tax cuts? Really?

Sounds like they have bigger issues than a cut in tax rate if they couldn't have done this without the tax cuts.

And funnily enough -- a little research -- and back in 2013 -- not tax cuts but Tampa Electric still cutting rates. The fifth reduction. So they couldn't afford to restore power without tax cuts but have been reducing rates for years.

" so that more people can go see a doctor when they need to"

Give the EXACT details where you PERSONALLY saw a person DENIED medical care "when they need it".

Wild unfounded exaggerations is WHY we CAN'T have honest discussions with a lot of people.

"You CAN'T REASON with an UN-REASONABLE person!"

What you conveniently overlook is the price increase that was planned to go into effect for the cost of restoring power after Hurricane Irma. The price increase is canceled as a result of tax cuts. Tampa Electric was not the only company that had planned increases due to hurricanes.

Most people get a notice from utility companies when they plan to raise rates. So you won't fool anyone who has received such a notice. The rate can decrease but then they add a surcharge cost for hurricane recovery expenses. Its not figured in the rate but effects the total cost. Eliminating that surcharge increase is a savings.

My rates have gone up because Scotty Walker decided to give away the state of WI to a foreign corporation and we the taxpayer get to pony up the dough for the infrastructure, increased electricity rates, and give away our fresh water.

I'm not fooling anybody -- just pointing out how loose they play with their changing rates, etc.

We haven't see any reductions in my red state.

Your source says utility rates will be cut by $3 billion dollars (while Trumps tax cuts are worth $2.3 trillion dollars.)
https://www.washingtonexaminer.com/w...t-gop-tax-cuts

Trump's tax cuts gave the richest 1% of Americans 53% of the tax cuts (so the richest 1% get $1 trillion dollars in tax cuts.)
https://www.forbes.com/sites/janetno.../#44e71f201099

The richest 1% got $1 trillion dollars in tax cuts and they give everyday Americans $3 billion dollars in reduced electric bills, and you cheer this?

How about giving regular Americans $1 trillion dollars in tax cuts, and then when regular Americans spend the money the richest 1% will get much of it when we buy their products?


And $3 billion dollars is a small crumb compared to $1 trillion dollars. For example, Donald Trumps kids get $2.8 billion dollars from Trumps tax cuts.
