Chef Jim Posted November 5, 2022 Share Posted November 5, 2022 6 minutes ago, BillStime said: Why are you against having our biggest entitlement programs brought up for review every 5 years? Private firms review their plans at least annually if not quarterly. Government sunsets things all the time. For instance the Trump tax cuts are set to sunset in 2026 which will raise EVERYONE’s taxes. And why are they lying about “scrapping” SS and Medicare? Why lie to make a point. This is getting ridiculous Bill. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Why else was Conald promising and always failing to deliver that middle class tax cut? Idiots Yup. Just like clockwork. How did I know you were going to say that the bracket adjustments would benefit the wealthy more. Let’s take a look at the math. The highest bracket went from 39.6% to 37% a reduction of 6.6% while the second to lowest bracket went from 15% to 12% a reduction of 20%. Yes the 10% bracket remained unchanged but those were for people making less than $10k single and $20k married filing jointly so not many people fall in that bracket. And with the standard deduction their income goes to $0 so their effective rate is 0% Billy stop reading the Twit for Brains post and look at reality.

You don’t know much about me. I can no longer deduct my mortgage interest. You know why? I don’t have one. And I’m 61 so no one is touching my SS. No one has even discussed taking it way. Doling out trillions in loans to his friends? Trillions?? Try $800b. Those loans, by some estimates, saved 3,000,000 jobs. Some say even more. I guess you don’t remember how many businesses were shut down during the pandemic. Was there abuse? Hell yeah. Government programs are always abused because the government sucks at checks and balances. But to bag in the program outright is pure political hackery on your part. It was needed and saves a ton of businesses. And nice dodge about the tax brackets. You were 100% wrong when you said the changes in the tax brackets benefited the wealthy the most.

Only a small person can’t admit when they were wrong. Admit it…you were wrong about the tax brackets. Be a man. There are plenty of resources that show the amount of the PPP loans but let’s go with that Uber right leaning NPR. https://www.npr.org/2022/10/12/1128207464/ppp-loans-loan-forgiveness-small-business Quote As COVID-19 shutdowns threatened businesses back in 2020, the U.S. government began issuing nearly $800 billion in potentially forgivable Paycheck Protection Program loans. The program was designed to help small businesses keep workers employed during the uncertain early days of the pandemic. Now if you can show me a credible site that shows it was TRILLIONS I’ll admit I was wrong. Again the government lost track because the massive bureaucratic machine sucks with our money. Left/Right/Center. Well I will not be losing my SS but even if I do not sure why you’ll laugh your ass off. I’ll be just fine. I have plenty to live off of without it. And again no one is talking about taking it away. As they have said “if it’s worth keeping Congress will find a way to keep it”. And it’s worth keeping. And finally the Trump tax cuts benefited me. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SoCal Deek Posted November 8, 2022 Share Posted November 8, 2022 If you want to pay more in taxes, please do so. Or…if you want to give money to the good work of a cause, charity, or non profit you appreciate please to do so. But please stop demanding that OTHER people, who already pay more than you, pay more in taxes. It’s a ridiculous and petty position to take. I couldn’t care less what a billionaire is paying in taxes. It’s proven to have zero impact on the ability of the federal government to overspend whatever amount they take in. Once the government proves they can live within its means, then we can start the discussion of what other programs we need as a society and how much everyone is willing to chip in for them.
