That $2.3 T "tax cut" given to the 1% wealthiest in this country was all borrowed money. You complain about socialism but forget that the wealthy ARE socialist welfare queens in this country. The boost from Trump's tax cut for the 1% wealthiest is already fizzling out. It was a wasted opportunity for most of the people of this country. If Trump's tax cut had been applied to existing student debt ($1.3T), the benefit would have benefited more than half the households in this country with 1 T left to use on tuition for the upcoming generation college students.
It's not fucking freedom to make the tax cuts permanent for the wealthy,and temporary for the rest of us. Its bullshit! Interest rates will go up, causing inflation. With no juice left in the economy to speed it back up, were screwed for a long time.I am not willingly going to pay for someone's degree in Early Childhood Development (baby sitting), or Medieval Art Appreciation.
That's a good point, and true; but so what.
The pres gave back some of the money that the gov't confiscated. The people he gave it back to used it the way they wanted to, me included. That is freedom. That is individuals acting to their own best interests. That is capitalism.
That is the United States of America.
And, the way things are going ... that is the way it will be for a long, long time.
