I knew that this was bad for America and the economy, the American people are being lied to and stolen from.

The total cost is around $2 billion

The $4k average pay raise did not pan out, wages have gone done instead.

Corporations are not putting that money back into the economy, they are doing stock buybacks and paying dividends instead.

the GOP claimed it would stop job outsourcing but the opposite happened.

the richest 1% will get 83% of the tax cuts.

Now they are looking to make cuts in other necessary programs such as Medicare and Social Security and Food Stamps to pay for it.


Thank you...for reading my thoughts and opinions and commentary as the OP.

So you agree all the information is correct, you just don't like the source, is that what you are saying or do you have any info to refute the facts?

Trump instituted steel tariffs to help unionized steel workers. At least that is what he said. So are only some private industry unions good?

Well I don't know - when people claim Fox or Breitbart, they plug their ears and head for the tall grass.

It's an opinion.

Tax cuts have lead to a better economic horizon and more people working. You can focus on one or two aspects and neglect others.
