How much better off financially are you since Trumps tax changes ?

Anopenheart · 51-55, M
it bugs me when people think that if they are doing better then it is just fine.. meanwhile, the vast majority of people are doing far worse,, and ALL of us now have a 1.5 trillion dollar debt to pay off because of the tax cut.. how does that make you better off?

@Anopenheart You are aware that the majority of our national tax debt came from Obama don't you?
Anopenheart · 51-55, M
if i was super rich then I would be doing great.. but the rest of us are doing far worse.. if we got a tax cut, it all went to pay for higher tariffs

Infinitely worse than your loaded question would imply, since it suggests that everyone received some sort of financial benefit as a result of the changes.

I did not, and in fact owed more on the same income in a state with no income tax.

Bottom line: Trump lied about the tax cuts, yet no Trumpansie is willing to admit it

@dommagic Good for him, but I was promised a tax cut and got the opposite of that.
dommagic · M
Neither did I, my point was one of the richest men there is got tax breaks I don’t know any average people that did@daisymay
daisymay · 51-55, T
@dommagic I know plenty of below-average people who will tell you how wrong you are at math and that they are rich now because of the tax cuts they didn't get.

They're morons.

@Anopenheart If you read what I said it is based on reality and those I know. Not CNN lies. You don't need a backup for personal observation. Get you head out.
Anopenheart · 51-55, M
i can say the same thing.. but i can back it up with evidence.. You, on the other hand,, keep saying the same thing over and over.. and can't show me any evidence to back it up@MasterLee
MasterLee · 56-60, M
@Anopenheart no you cannot refute my personal observations. You cannot possibly prove it. Good luck trying.

For me it's a tough call. I was in school getting my Navy Retirement plus GI Bill so my income was pretty much fixed until I started working a month ago.

Ask me again next year.

No. I’m in good shape because of investments the bore fruit before Trump.

If anything, Trump and the Republicans are holding me back from being able to retire: if there were national healthcare I wouldn’t have to hang onto my job for insurance and someone younger could take it. Good job GOP 👌

Much, thanks for asking.

I am not...lost my job of 43 yrs because of his tax cuts.
PTCdresser57 · 61-69, M
With the tax cuts given by Trump to corporations the company is only looking at how to get more money by automating everything...profits..shareholders not about employees.
helenS · 36-40, F
@PTCdresser57 I see, thank you. I am sorry you lost your job.
PTCdresser57 · 61-69, M
Ty helen..my company lost 710 million dollars in 2017...they made a profit of 3.6 million in 2018 due to tax cuts. In the meantime I got back $2400 in 2017 and had to pay in $2300 in 2018. Plus 60 of the top companies in the US paid no taxes and a few still got millions in Fed tax returns. Then Trump has added over 2 trillion to the Fed defecit..you tell me whats fair and how I or other Americans are doing!
MarineBob · 56-60, M
Yes, but I will be honest and say I am also making considerably more money
dommagic · M
I’m not, no one I really know is

@PainfulTruth Trump has a college degree.
His indoctrination did him well. 😂

Is this the new thing for the ignorant..."Education shaming"? 😂

Same as under Obama. I didn't get much back under both Obama and Trump. Nothing changed for me.

TJNewton · M
I was talking to some American friends on twitter who have 3 jobs and still can't make ends meet
Scubaguy027 · 46-50, M
@TJNewton I have a few friends in similar positions however they live in EXTREMELY high cost areas and at least one of them spends his money on crap he doesn't need constantly. This moron bought 3 different TVs in 7 or 8 months all on credit.
TJNewton · M
@Scubaguy027 Well it doesnt matter what he spends his money on no one should ever have to work 3 jobs and struggle
Scubaguy027 · 46-50, M
@TJNewton that's just it, he had to get a second job to afford his lifestyle. It's more about that with him
DDonde · 31-35, M
Zero change for me.
