Not a surprise to anyone except the few dense peeps that still believe the trickle down lie. Hey- who would have thought giving massive tax breaks to the ultra rich WOULDN'T somehow save our gov money? Didn't work the previous 2 times either.

Its not the tax cuts (people keeping more of their own money from govt thieves) its the lack of spending cuts to go with them.

ONLY spending creates debt and deficits.

When will liberals learn basic math and finance?

Well, at least the Dems know the spending has to be paid for. The GOP spends more and takes in less. Its a horrible recipe. Fiscal conservatives need to wake up and realize they are backing the wrong party.

Opinion: As an example....

A landlord of a multi family gets a better tax break on his property than a single home owner. He is a business.
He provides shelter for a sum in return. If the economy does poorly he gets hit and passes along the increases
to the renter. If this were not possible the landlord would lose his home as well as the renter. Tax breaks must
start with the ( business ) landlord if everybody is to be kept happy. So toss your graphs. You are only showing
us a struggling economy. Let the Republicans do their job at improving the economy and then watch how everything
begins to improve from the bottom to all the way up!

Funny, my company used our tax cuts to invest $600,000 in a new solar powered roof. We are Trump supporters, so imagine that. Not to mention the employees not only got an increase in their wages, but also got a nice year ending bonus of two thousand per year that you have worked at the company, and the average worker has been there at least 10 years. Some 20. And we are all walks of life.
