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

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.

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