Ok Libs, pick apart Trump`s tax plan

[BA Deere]

Married couples under $50K or single under $25K no federal income tax.  Trump soaks the rich, eliminates carried interest.  You Libs oughta like this, I`m not wild about it because too many won`t have "skin in the game"...but if we are buying their votes for our side, I guess it isn`t totally bad.  I`ll section 179 a ripper and no taxes for me yippee!  Well, more acurately sub $3 corn and sub $8 beans will insure I won`t owe taxes 🙂    ....:(

Who benefits the most? BA deere with a $5 million dollar estate or a presidential candidate with a $10 billion  estate. And don't give me that double taxation crap!

Actual economist are laughing at the plan.

Mr Trump is supposed to be a new kind of politician; a straight-talker who, freed from the usual constraints of politics by his billions, tells it like it is. But promising to fund tax cuts by closing unspecified loopholes is an old political wheeze. Mr Trump says the country’s “top” economists helped to develop his plan; alas, for now they remain anonymous. Any contributor would be wise to stay in the background. 🙂  Mr Trump’s plan is twaddle.     🙂  🙂  LOL ha ha ha ha

Actual economists have been telling the truth in the past? Then why are we 19 trillion in debt? Doesn't seem to me the "plan" has been working too well.

Wars,  too many Bush's and a  Raygun  accounts for about 64.693 % of it.

My big problem with Trump is I have read where he is for single payer health care. I don't want any politician to have that kind of power to hold over me. His tax plan will never work with single payer. He needs to be questioned on how he will reconcile the two.

What Trump is attempting to do is allow corps with huge off shore accounts find a way to bring that money back into the country without giving a huge part of it to the federal government. need that money to come into our economy and Trump is the only one talking about a way to accomplish that.

Not as long as you want the government to choose the winners at the expense of the little guy. Like trying to find the biggesat rat hole to pour the money down and the best tamping stick to make sure it's full.
