I doubt even that scenario is true.

While the Trump tax cut package was large - it certainly wasn't the biggest tax cut package historically - either measured in straight dollars or accounting for inflation.

Further, as others have noted in this thread, corporations received a large chunk of the Trump tax cut package - so much so - that the Trump tax cuts for corporations probably exceeded the corporation tax cuts from the Reagan era.


I don't doubt that you read something online which included the words "Trump tax cut" and "largest" and "middle class" in the same paragraph or sentence but I am guessing you mis-read what the article or opinion piece was trying to convey.

I mean, in this thread, you have skimmed materials online and asserted "this proves my point!" on two different occasions - when none of the material you provided supported your claims.

So it appears your prior "fact" was not a fact at all.

If both of those comments about your tax liability and tax cuts are true - you got "screwed" by the Trump tax cuts. I know, I know - any tax cut which puts money back in your pocket (especially if it is indeed $3700) is a "win," but your Trump tax cut was below the average tax cut for your income level.

However, I am guessing that your memory is a little foggy on the numbers - after all, a few years have passed since you had to file those tax returns.


PS: And, of course, there could be valid reasons why your tax cut was less than the average tax cut. One of the modifications that was made at that time was to cap certain deductions - so if you (or your accountant) was really good at claiming deductions under the old rules, that could explain the lower number vs the average.

middle class tax cuts = temporary


corporate/wealthy tax cuts = permanent

while the middle class got a cut, it was minimal and going away. those are the facts

o


THE UPPER CLASS: lll, Keeps all of the money, pays none of the taxes.


THE MIDDLE CLASS: ll Pays all of the taxes, does all of the work.


The poor ??? The poor are there just to scare the hit out of the middle class ...... keep them showing up at those jobs.

They should make a movie about the Pubs who cant shoot straight. They need to stay away from crime, they suck at it

Unlike the democrats, who are experts at it. They never get caught, and if caught, they never get convicted.

Yep, so many criminals on the dem side too. Yet, Jaff only mentions the republicans. He and many like him are really part of the problem in this country. Both sides have criminals, the dems are no better than the republicans.

There are some good republicans and some good democrats, unfortunately for Americans there are a lot of bad ones who lie, cheat, steal and continue to destroy this country. It's sad really.

Final word on Luck tampering
 

Report: Andrew Luck tampering probe has been resolved to the Colts’ satisfaction

It started as a recognition of insufficient evidence. It quickly has become something sufficient happening to get the Colts to drop it.

Through little more than 12 hours, the prevailing narrative regarding the Colts’ tampering claims against the Commanders pivoted from, per the Washington Post, a lack of hard evidence to, per ESPN.com, the Colts being content with the outcome.

Stephen Holder of ESPN.com reports that the situation “has been resolved to the Colts’ satisfaction.”

The Post report created the impression that the situation would go nowhere because there was no way to prove that the Commanders had contacted retired Colts quarterback Andrew Luck or someone in his camp regarding a potential unretirement in 2022. (As explained last night, there was/is a simple way to investigate this.) Holder takes it one step farther, explaining that an actual determination has been made that the Commanders “never spoke to Luck or anyone in his immediate circle.”

Of course, it was ESPN.com that lit the fuse — twice — regarding potential tampering. John Keim of ESPN.com reported in 2022 (it went largely unnoticed) and in 2023 (it was definitely noticed by the Colts) that the Commanders’ wide-net search for a quarterback in 2022 included a call about Luck.

Colts owner Jim Irsay was upset. Per Holder, Irsay personally called Commissioner Roger Goodell to discuss the situation.

Lost and/or overlooked in most assessments of this situation is the fact that last month’s bizarre resolution of tampering by the Cardinals with former Eagles defensive coordinator Jonathan Gannon created a very real incentive for teams to cry foul when they believe they’ve become the victims of tampering. The league, which either didn’t realize or didn’t care that the effort to brush the Gannon tampering under the rug would prompt other teams to try to get what the Eagles got, quite possibly has sent the message to the Colts, and perhaps to other teams, that the Gannon outcome was not intended to provide a tampering treasure map.

In other words, the league wanted the Gannon tampering to not be a big deal. The best way to keep that from happening was to let the teams work it out, and in turn to announce it minutes (literally) before the start of round one of the draft.

Then, once others began to realize that the resolution potentially becomes a precedent that could be used to their advantage, the league had to start spreading the word that it’s not a new procedure. That it was just a way to keep people from asking too many questions about the tampering with Gannon — and about whether it might have truly disrupted his work in preparation for Super Bowl LVII and, in turn, about whether it possibly undermined the integrity of the most important game of the year.

With owners gathering in Minneapolis for their spring meetings, don’t be surprised if they’re all told that making public tampering allegations in an effort to improve their collection of draft picks will be frowned upon. Be very surprised if that message is ever acknowledged publicly.

Seems the writer omitted something very important. The Colts did not initiate this; ESPN initiated it. They put out the idea that Washington tampered. Irsay responded. Media says Irsay and Colts started it. Typical media.

Yeah, they pretty much lie all the time to fit their narrative.

They write a fake story for clicks. Then they write another story to follow up on the shit they stirred with the first false story.

LOL, never ending cycle of bullshit.

Normalization of school shootings

https://www.chds.us/sssc/charts-graphs/

All shootings last as long as it takes for another gun to show up. None of these fucking tragedies happened until they started with all the gun free zones, and twisted democrats. 90% of mass shootings are a result of your fucking party. Wanna stop them? Stop letting democrats own guns. Not one shooter was a member of the NRA, but they are the whipping boy for every single one. Liberalism is a fucking mental disorder.

Very true, ask the parents of Uvalde, if that works for them

Put a couple teachers through some training and arm them. Instead of sending money to Ukraine, get some vets and hire them to guard schools. At least until we can disarm democrats so this shit stops.

The gun arrived in Ulvalde pretty damn quick, just had a soft pussy police chief who wouldn't give the go ahead to enter. One officer was requesting approval to engage the suspect when he was still in the fucking parking lot. Why did he need permission? Cause of the soft ass left and their, "The Police Are Bad" mentality. Cops are afraid of going to jail.

Supreme Court has ruled twice that police have no legal obligation to protect you, so with the constant attack on them from the left, they don't. Again, liberalism is a fucking mental disorder.

You want vets to protect schools, and it sounds good. The problem is that schools are open canvases, easy for kids to access. So that needs to change, put a fence around it. Well, better be safe, put a double fence, and add dogs. Seriously, dogs in schools wouldnt be the worst ideas.

If you wont regulate or prevent anyone from buying a gun, the only way to keep kids safe is to turn every school into a FORT.

Or, we could not hand guns out like candy.

This comment is dumb.

This is also naïve. Regulating guns would be even less effective as regulating drugs. we see drug trade increasing over and over, despite regulations. opiod abuse by selling illegally has not stopped with regulation, so why would you expect it to work for guns? Abortion advocates say that outlawing them won't stop women from getting them, and they would just get them illegally, but you think that would not happen with guns? No, all it would do is make harmless gun owners into criminals, just like it would women who need an abortion for whatever reason that has been outlawed.

Political fights get me ill because of people who argue extremes, like you. Be realistic for once.

Hand em out like candy? How many have you bought? I have to undergo a background check every single time, not just when they feel like it. You can't circumvent the God given rights of Americans cause of your feelz. I own in excess of 200 firearms and have no desire to hurt anyone that doesn't hurt me or my family.

The last time there was an "Assault Weapon" ban it essentially did nothing and two of the years long gun deaths went up. So the ban guns mantra is tiresome and useless. I never hear anyone say how they are going to disarm criminals.

this kind of shit is retarded.

banning guns won't work but you want to ban every single thing you don't like.

Yes, because that is sarcasm. So what do we do? If its not a gun problem, it has to be a people problem.

How do we allow law abiding people to have guns and withhold them from the criminal and mentally ill?

https://www.thetrace.org/2023/03/gun...ata-atf-total/

According to the web site above, there are about 350 MILLON guns in circulation in the US. So try to take guns away from all people is impractical. So that leaves us with who should and those who should never have a gun. More red flag laws, where law enforcement must take every inquiry seriously. And most important, put more safety officers in and around school campuses, and other possible possible targets. Former police and sheriffs, military, people who can trained in school safety.

Its a people problem, and it needs to be solved by people. And of course it will take money for salary and training. Spending money on security officers is the best option I can think of if the government wont control gun sales.

Sarcasm flies right over your head huh? Beside the fact it is true, most of the mass shooters are democrats. So even though it was sarcasm, it holds weight. Still stand on the thought liberalism is a fucking mental disorder.

I'm never for banning anything. If a civilian wants to buy an F-22 and has the money, get that m'fer. My only exception is, nobody including any government body should own nuclear weapons. We are one loose screw from being turned to ash. It is scary enough the last m'fer and the current m'fer had/have the nuclear codes.

i find this very hard to believe.

you aren't for banning anything but the people you support and worship certainly do. which makes you in full support as well

o


It's irrelevant, and inconsequential ...... most mass shooters are psychotic, young males with a chip on their shoulder bigger than Mount Everest, and mental health issues so massive that Sigmund Freud would have a hard time coming to terms with them ...... the Republican/Democrat and the Liberal/Conservative angles are hardly something in which these sociopaths have dedicated any significant amount time, energy, or thought to in their lives. The vast majority of them hardly represent either side of what we think of as the American political spectrum.

The best deals are the ones where both sides feel like they got screwed. Sounds so dumb, but its true. If one group gets the short end, they will do just about anything to pay back the winners next time around.

Only people who got screwed was us. They should have never raised the debt ceiling and let the shit default. Contrary to what that fucking dufus thinks he can not raise the debt ceiling constitutionally as he insinuated so many times.
