Everyone loves to take pot shots at everyone else’s tax rates so long as they aren’t in that bracket. In a nutshell….for those who missed it, or were still in junior high, Obama raised the tax rate on the uppermost wage earners on the premise that it was all for the cause during the Great Recession. The Trump tax cut brought the rate right back down again when the Recession was over. How is this difficult to understand? People don’t realize that Trump gave a huge tax break lower income people by doubling of the standard deduction. But Orange Man Bad so they just assume he only gave tax breaks to the rich. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

US Egg Posted March 10 Share Posted March 10 In an attempt to go after the wealthy, Democrats idiotically created the GRAT tax loophole, which turned out to be a three decade boon for billionaires. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We should take some things europe does well; and we can do them better. The Scandinavian countries are among the happiest in the world. Why would you not want something similar? I'm not suggesting massive tax increases but moderate ones where you get a lot back for what you pay in. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
