Ok? Good for them?

As if that gives you the right to repeatedly mis-represent the truth?

What concealed information is Pelosi using to achieve her goal?

The word you’re looking for is extortion; blackmail is incorrect.

If it was a bill giving financial assistance to illegal immigrants, all Dems would vote to pass it.

But not Americans.

Anyone else find that fact infuriating?

Sounds like you don't even understand what socialism is.

The Trump tax cuts gave the average small business a 19.8% effective tax rate, and gave America's largest corporations a 11.3% effective tax rate.

https://fortune.com/2019/12/19/low-e...ate-tax-rates/


And under Trumps tax plan 91 of America's largest corporations have 0% tax rates, with many corporations receiving tax rebates. For example Amazon, Chevron, Halliburton and IBM received a net tax rebate of $4.3 billion dollars (while paying no taxes.)

https://finance.yahoo.com/news/compa...155944124.html


And Trumps tax cuts did the following for personal income,

Raised low income workers after-tax income by 0.8%.
Raised middle class Americans income by 1.5%.
Raised the richest 1% of Americans income by 13.5%.
Raised the richest 0.1% of Americans income by 14.2%.
