Trump: We have Serious Economic Concerns

Trump wasn't President in 2016 and the Trump tax cuts didn't go into affect until 2018.

So, what does that chart which starts in 2016 have to do with what I said????

 

That article says "US Debt by President by Dollar and Percentage", not by congress.

The GOP controlled the house the last 6 years of both the Clinton and Obama presidency.

 

You posted an article from a left-wing site....

And I countered with the fact that the rich pay the vast majority of the Federal taxes...

• The top 1% pays 40% of the Federal income taxes.
• The top 10% pays 70% of the Federal income taxes.
• The top 50% pays 96% of the Federal income taxes.
• The bottom 50% pays only 4% of the Federal income taxes.

 

He is discussing (trying to discuss) economics and can't figure out who was President in 2016. Unreal.

 

and you would be correct.

 

Who do you think builds those yachts?

 

That isn't the least bit relevant to the discussion. The federal government can pretty much pay what it wants to federal employees no matter how good or bad the U.S. economy is doing. So the very idea behind this thread is pointless.

 

No the ones he passed for the middle and lower classes. Look at tax revenues, record revenues. It's spending, do you support Trumps spending cuts. Solid employment, rising wages.............more revenues.

 

Can you point to where that "on the back of the middle class is?

 

Craftsmen making good money!

 

Where do you get your information? Between my wife and I we are bringing in an extra $400 a month.

 

You don't know what you're talking about..........Obviously you've never worked in that Industry

 

And you have?

Can't you read? It's the change from 2016 (before Trump's tax cuts to the rich) to 2021 (when the middle class feels the negative effects.

 

You're talking about the small temporary bubble that the tax cuts produced when first enacted way back then. Other than that... we just went back to the tendency we had before the tax cuts for the rich were enacted.

It's not 2021.

 

So, the Republican controlled house during Obama's last 6 years in office authored budgets that brought down the deficit? You don't say?

 

Whom do you think builds cars, appliances, lawn mowers, and furniture? Whom do think represents the largest segment of the consumer sector. these items or yachts? Meanwhile, America is a country of billionaires and homeless veterans sleeping in the streets. And Atlas shrugged.

 

So? How will eliminating billionaires help "homeless veterans"?

And why are veterans being homeless any more (or less) important than anyone being homeless?

 

I live in a high-tax blue state, and I got a tax decrease.

 

For years. Building up to 105 Footers

Cheap pay and high Turnover.

The aftermarket repair is good pay

 

Correction;

To reduce the deficit, Trump's revenue growth rates have to outpace his spending growth rates by at least 1%.

 

You got to keep more of your money by passing the bill to your kids and grandkids. Ain’t that special.
