I debated whether to start a new thread dedicated to tax policy but I decided to put it here.

Despite the Dems rhetoric (that Trump is only out to help the rich), Trump is considering something really interesting. According to insiders such as Steve Bannon, he's considering extending the tax cuts for everyone except the top income bracket. he's also looking to add another bracket for the very rich, those that make over a million/yr. Then he would use that money to pay for is idea of not taxing tips and social security income.

I think this is a huge political winner. What do you all think? Do you support this or not? Please chime in...

Lower rates and do away with all deductions, filing statuses, and credits.

Looks like the average pay, according to Google, is about $18/hr. That's not good money for the risks and effort.

In Virginia the average is $25 an hour. $50K a year ain't what it used to be but isn't bad at all for the job requirements.
I believe you may be misinformed about the effort level needed to mine coal. Are you at all familiar with the industry? Have you ever been on a mine site?

Can we please stop with the “puddinhead” thing.
It’s shameful what his people did to him. Sending him out there with dementia. It’s an awful disease. My father was brilliant. But dementia reduced him to a point that he couldn’t form a sentence.

Can we not just go with his name?
President Biden. Or just Biden.


Please.


This is not a rebuke to you but simply a request for decorum and respect.

To be fair he had sawdust for brains long before his dementia started.

May not be a popular position to most, but I am not in favor of increasing ANY taxes on ANY segmanet of our population. We do not have a revenue problem, we have a spending problem. DOGE is proving the money is there, we just need to spend it properly.

Finely, this notion of taxing “the rich”. “The Rich” are the people who create most of the jobs in the country. They did not become financially stable by being dumb with their money. When their taxes go up, they will simply pass that along by either 1) hiring less people or 2) charging more for their goods/services. In both situations, we all pay for it.

How is Warren Buffet going to pass his higher taxes on to you?

He forgot the part where conservatives don't seem to care at all if their opponents are free of social media censorship and de-platforming.

I also disapprove of the use of “tRump”
It’s not hard to be an adult…..except when we’re play fighting. That’s different because we’re talking about each other and not a 3rd party….i feel like you should not say something that you would not say to their face. And nobody here would have the balls to call him “puddinhead” to his face. They’d deserve the beating the secret service would give them

It is really no secret that I have never been a fan of Biden politically, however, I believe it is uncalled for to make fun of him for having dementia. My mamaw died with Alzheimer's many years ago. I was young at the time but it seemed that one moment she was mentally healthy, then in a matter of a few months she couldn't remember who her family members were. She already had the misfortune of being an amputee from losing both her legs decades prior when she was hit by a car. Luckily, my Papaw was a strong devoted husband that spent all of his time in the nursing home with her until she passed. You mentioned earlier that your Father suffered with dementia correct? Sorry that happened to him and your family.

How about we cut the spending, end the preferences in the tax code, flatten the base, and lower the rates for those currently paying income taxes....

The person living in section 8 with 6 kids by 6 different dads that works 2 weeks out of the year to get a few free grand from H&R Block will never go for it. They say everyone needs to pay their fair share.

I get that they're not down there with pickaxes, but it's my understanding it's not easy work. Definitely not healthy work.

My father had Alzheimer's. My mother had every kind of arthritis known to man and at the end she was riddled with different infestations of cancer that had pretty much spread everywhere. Dad had the better deal, and it wasn't even close. Biden is in no pain. I KNOW it is a terrible example of what a Christian could/should do, but after what he did, I just don't care about him in any capacity. He was an evil, vile human being that ruined both the country and probably millions of lives.

And I am not 'making fun of him'.

If I walked up to him and called him "Puddinhead" and the SS beat me up, I would sue the government for a billion dollars.

CNN is at bottom of anyone's viewership for getting their news & this is why.
They cry bc they want to keep hot garbage protesters to hate in our country.
