Who is "we"? I thought you were a day trader with a gardener who you paid 40k.

At least try to keep your story straight.

It's odd. I've tried to figure out the whole, "day trader" thing. From what I can gather the only thing he's trading during the day are political insults.

We don't have to worry about tax cuts from the Dems . They don't do tax cuts. They just raise them.
Whenever the GOP comes out with a tax cut the Dems come out with their same old tired BS. ITS ONLY FOR THE RICH.
I keep telling you LIBS the Govt gives you a amount but you are free to pay whatever you want over that. Just leave my cut and my money alone.

self proclaimed patriots always sound the most selfish.

Outstanding quote .... yours? I'll be using it in the future.

As for the comment above about the Dems always raising taxes .... This is a good read - but all you need to really look at is the very first graph that shows who the hell benefits from all the tax cuts from 2001-2018 .... Oh and yes, Obama cut taxes multiple times. But don't let real facts get in the way of your alternative facts (lies).

https://itep.org/federal-tax-cuts-in-the-bush-obama-and-trump-years/

And another good summary of specifically Obama here:

http://money.com/money/4630346/president-obama-taxes-increase-obamacare/

As of 2013, the Tax Policy Center found that, under Obama, the top 1% of earners paid an effective federal tax rate of roughly 32%, compared to about 27% under Bush. But middle earners paid roughly 12%, almost exactly the same as under the previous president, while low earners paid a bit less — about 2.3%, rather than 3.5%.

Note: Real numbers, real facts. . . absent Trump and GOP spin and brainwashing.

A military obligation is 6 years bro. So I question your service.....and so what, you served. Thank you. But don’t speak like only republicans can serve their country with honor. Shame on you.

Trump raised our taxes so we should get something in return right? Like education, healthcare, and family planning and counseling isn’t too much to ask for right? Yet we’ll only get sent to war. We’ll die for our country. Our taxes will buy bombs, and other weapons to kill others. Our taxes are used to buy walls and to separate children from their parents while their children take care of other children in their cages like animals in a zoo. Enjoy your fascist USA until 2020 bro.

Show me where the "Dems" want all these things for illegals. Or are you trying to make the false claim that a few on the fringe speak for democrats like usual?

You already pay for medical for everyone else. It comes in the form of your premiums and deductibles for those who don't pay. How else do you think they show a profit while millions don't pay their bills?

And contraception, really? Do you know how much a baby born in poverty costs American tax payers over the course of their lifetime? But the small amount it takes to prevent those pregnancies is something you object to?

We have two years of free community college here in Tennessee. It was promoted and passed by a Republican governor and a Republican senate. Because people with a little vision and insight understand what education does for your people and the future of your states economy.

They understand that high paying jobs demand a population that has the education level that corporations need to fill those jobs. They understand that having an educated populace is the best investment your state can have to bring in great jobs. As such they came to understand that if you want to help your people get high paying jobs, you wish to attract those kind of jobs to your state, that those two years of free community college is an investment in the economy of your state.

There are still smart Republicans around. Those who make some sound decisions with the future in mind. Then there are those who really don't think things through. Like you.

Your math isn't adding up here.

I think taxes need to be cut further, or evened. One tax rate for all. Everybody pays the same....sounds fair to me

ME TOO! 90% income/corp profits/wealth tax across the board and then we can get redistribution checks cut, pass anti-profiteering legislation to fix the rigged economic system and enjoy the restoration of economic balance among the classes. The result would be like the good old days of the 50s-70s Trumpians want so badly...

Why were at it, cut every American a 10K check once a month. Then we could significantly reduce the value of our foreign debt and pay off the debt/deficit once and for all.

Oh and yes we might have to restore the ability to create its own money to the Government by abolishing the fed to pull this off, but that would be a good thing.

PUH-lease! Extremism is allowing 40+ years of trickle down voodoo economics and elitist sponsored legislation ruin this country! This is just a correctional measure to cut the BS and restore the economy to greatness (for everybody).

It would restore businesses leaving America and trash the entire economy.

Cutting everyone a check for 10k would trash the economy.

Math has never been an extreme liberals friend.

It's like telling everyone they will be forced into a government healthcare system and they'll have no choice in the matter.

One thing is certainly true. Democrats are good at blowing elections. And this time, those on the far left are very motivated in doing so.

If the government regulated the flow of its own money like it did before The Federal Reserve was created it could manage the expansion and contraction of that flow to stabilize the economy while simultaneously manipulating the power of the dollar to it's advantage against our debts.

Thinking outside the box drawn by those who want power over you is horrible idea, huh?

Why aren't you making this claim against those on the right supporting more tax cuts for the rich? That's just insane!

My whole 90% statement was in response to one... but you know, I'm the kind of guy who would call for a 90% tax... rolleyes

When GOPers win, they want it their way only. When GOPers lose, they want it their way only. When Dems allow them to continually move the goalpost to the right, they move the center to the right. The center needs to be moved left of moderate/centrist to its' original spot.
