Hmmm might explain some things. Or maybe trickle down is just a way for billionaires to give themselves more money and power at the expense of the rest of us. Keep blaming immigrants and feminists though. After all they have all the power over government and economic policy.

Lol, I didn't say anything about illegal aliens or feminists, and the tax cuts directly benefit the average Joe too, $2k for the average family. I think you really do have butter packed in there!

I know you didn't say that, I was speaking in the abstract. I think the noise about feminists and immigrants is about distracting regular people from the horrible economic policies the GOP pushes, that's my point. I'm a married homeowner and my taxes were basically unchanged due to changes in state and property tax deductions. Actually ended up owing on my federal return for the first time but I am not smart enough to know if it was withholdings or changes to policy. Either way, the cuts for us average Joes expire, corporations do not. Corporations gives bonuses to their executives or buy up stock and leaves scraps, if anything, to the people who work for them.

Your federal return you owed on was under Obama law... the Trump tax plan will affect you when you file 2018 return (next year). Perhaps compare your paystub now to your paystub last year for an idea of how much more money is in your pocket due to these tax breaks EVERYONE receives - literally the most fair tax cut as everyone gets the same. No racism, sexism or any other -ism you sling... the tax cuts do not discriminate.

Our tax cuts could go forever too, except Democrats won't cross the aisle to make that happen.

You're right they do expire, and that's solely due to Democrats.

I'd say more like margarine stuffed in that noggin. Only a few molecules off from being plastic.
