sugardaddy Posted February 9, 2017 Report Share Posted February 9, 2017 President Trump to his conservative critics: I read you loud and clear! After coming under criticism from many on the right — most prominently, the Drudge Report — for seeming to move popular campaign promises like repealing ObamaCare and reining in the tax code to the back burner, this morning Trump promised a “phenomenal” tax reform package will be presented in the next two to three weeks. Speaking to airline executives at the White House, Trump empathized with the burdensome regulatory climate the industry is operating under, and promised to begin making reforms."We want to help you realize these goals by rolling back burdensome regulations, and you people are regulated probably as much as almost anybody," Trump said. "We have a regulatory morass that's a disaster."He also promised a round of tax cuts. "Lowering the overall tax burden on American business is big league, that’s coming along very well," Trump said. "We’re way ahead of schedule, I believe. And we’re going to be announcing something I would say over the next two or three weeks that will be phenomenal."Trump also criticized government mandates hampering the airline industry. "Obsolete" equipment is being purchased for air traffic control that is making the overall industry more expensive, he said. Trump credited his own pilot with clueing him in on the difficult government-airline relationship. "My pilot, he is a smart guy, and he knows what’s going on, he said the government is using the wrong equipment and instituting a massive multi-billion dollar project using the wrong type of equipment," Trump said. "So let’s find out about that." Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mikeman Posted February 9, 2017 Report Share Posted February 9, 2017 Those tax cuts should only apply to republicans, and I'm not kidding, no reason to give people a tax cut who dont want a tax cut. You'd have two tables, check box a - I'm a liberal and believe in sharing the wealth - pay higher tax. Check box b - I'm a conservative and worked hard for my money - pay lower tax. This way everyone would be happy except the few selfish people that want other people to pay their taxes, and we cant pander to them.

If you come from a state that voted R, you don't get any. Would almost eliminate all welfare in the US. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Would almost eliminate all welfare in the US.Lets see...CA, NY, ILL(chicago), NJ, Nahh, plenty of welfare in those states. But I agree with you, food stamps and welfare should be cut way back.

For myself, I've got it all planned out, gonna retire in a year or so and then I'll pay almost nothing forever(roth untaxable, etc), I'll join the ranks of parasites of society.

By the way those southern whites on welfare are still going to vote republican(the dems lost them long ago), I wonder why? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Dark Man Posted February 9, 2017 Report Share Posted February 9, 2017 You aren't supposed to ask things like that. we spent 19 trillion we dont have, we can pretend awhile longer, right? Unfortunately no. You're gonna have to float these for a good 5 years before any good supply sided economic plan broadens the tax base and Trump is too stuck on protectionism policy to realize a supply sided plan. Where does the money for infrastructure to get the brick and mortar moving? What's gonna happen is, that in absence of a static broad based economic plan, corporations are gonna pocket the money as profit or write downs negatively affecting GDP. This Trump guy has a decent idea here but he's too fukked up to see it through. He's gotta stop this protectionism bullshit and get some real hardhat guys around him. Guys that built factories, not media trolls and bankers. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They are supporting the R voters.I mean... Illinois is probably the most fiscally irresponsible state in the nation; actually, not probably... they are undoubtedly. First state ever I believe to run a year without passing a budget. A complete disaster. Chicago used to work much more efficiently than the rest of the state, but the taxes have gotten out of control and the city spends their money poorly as well. Bring back Mayor Daley!

The south should be turned into a parking lot for all us tax paying northerners. Funny how much of the country is paid for by those "liberal" Californians and big city livers (suburbanites) but you don't think there votes should even count.
