Cry me a river.

The government isn't entitled to revenue beyond what's necessary to fulfill it's Constitutionally defined functions.


And it went WAAAAAYYYY beyond that a long time ago.

Wait, you mean they aren't supposed to pay for illegal's healthcare? But don't most Americans want to pay for illegals' healthcare?

I would have preferred more tax cuts for individuals and less tax cuts for corporations.

I also support a conservative fiscal policy that includes cutting spending.

No? That’s simply what right-wing propaganda espouses; You fell for it.

Heck, I live in a blue state and I got a nice reduction. Of course, Illinois is going to sock it to me next year and take it all back but that's beside the point.

I doubt you will respond, but I strongly suspect this is a lie.

Tell me, what part of the new tax code caused this alleged increase?

Your profile says you live in FL, so I don’t see how you got burned on mortgage interest or SALT....

No, “they” are not. It’s nothing more than BS fear-mongering in order to drum up viewers and increase the party divide.


I’m paying attention, but obviously do not consume right-wing propaganda as you do.

Feel free to send them all your money if you choose.

How exactly did you save? Are you considering the future debt it created for which we all will pay dearly for when interest rates go up.

Could it be that your 10th grade economics did not teach you everything?
