Maybe this is why no GOPer is talking about the tax cut?

Apparently the lower income people are going to end up paying so the wealthier people get their tax cut. And this is even before the GOp makes huge cuts in Medicare, Social Security and Medicaid. I guess that the GOP doesn't want this actually pointed out to the citizens by making it a big issue during this campaign.

Yup. Working for a living is the "New White Nationalism". Tell your friends not to vote for Trump! LOL

They're not running on the corporate tax giveaway because it's unpopular. The one thing this Congress "achieved" and the voters see right through it.

The link is behind a paywall so I guess the lower income folks are simply expected to take your word for their "ending up paying for" those tax cuts.

If Tuesday's elections goes the way the numbers indicate, the House of Representatives will be in Democratic hands. Cuts to Medicare, Social Security and Medicaid won't happen unless the two parties can come to a meeting of the minds in order to save them for future generations.

This midterm, as most first midterms have always been is a referendum on the new president. Did the new president meet the expectations envisioned when he first took office? The answer I think is no. This president was chosen as the lesser of two evils offered in 2016. Especially among independents whose votes put Trump into the White House. Trump has lost a lot of the support among independents he once had on election and inauguration day. It is the independent voter fed up with Trump obnoxious behavior, persona if you will exhibited as president. These non-aligned voters will give the House to the Democrats.

As for the tax cuts, I agree. They tended to hurt the poor and those on fixed incomes more than the higher income types. That isn't why I was against them, I was against them due to our sky rocketing national debt. A tax cut was the last thing this country needed. If our debt isn't addressed soon and perhaps even radically, we won't have to worry out external threats destroying us, our financial situation will.

They see right through Democrat demagoguery like tax cuts for the rich to the record low unemployment for blacks and Hispanics and the gains in median household income. Given the fact that 48% of Federal income tax filers pay no net Federal income tax, this includes all low income and poor, explain how they are going to bear the burden of making up for the new tax cuts. Oh wait, the rapidly improving economy under Trump's policies has already reduced the population of food stamp (SNAP) recipients by millions.

As people get jobs and raises in the Trump economy they will have to start paying more in taxes. Of course independence from the welfare state is the Democrats nightmare.

What Trump policies are you talking about? The economy was already taking off under Obama and trump received the best economy or nay president in the past 40 years from the preceding president in the past 50 years. And what policies have caused the economy to increase under Trump. The tax cut that went 83% to the top 10%. Since we are a consumer driven economy that did not do anything to help the economy. It did improve the Stock market because all that wealth going to the top 10% had to go some where and that has little positive effect on the present economy. Cuts to regulations might help in the future, but not now and they will certainly hurt the environment. Cuts in taxes to the corporations have gone mainly to the stockholders who in the main are once again the top 10% and to buy back stocks. So I see little that Trump has done to actually help the economy. The best thing he has done is he has not done anything to hurt the present economy, but the tariffs may do that in the near future. So, once again, what policies?
