WAKE UP PEOPLE: We should be in the streets against this tax cut scam

[egbertowillies]

Americans need to stop being so complacent about the tax cut scam that President Trump and Republicans are attempting to impose on them. We must earn our freedom. We cannot keep it with an apathetic attitude.

When your local Progressive organizations (Indivisible, Our Revolution, etc.) put out actions, you must participate, with your body if possible. Forget the Republican spin on their tax cut scam. It isn't even about the deficit. It is deeper than that. It is about the theft of our country's treasure.

It is false that expanded economic activity will pay for the tax cut. Not even Republicans believe that lie. How do we know that? When Senator Corker asked to put in an amendment that will reverse the taxes if there wasn't sufficient economic activity to pay for the tax cut, Republicans rejected it. Why refuse said change if one believes the increased economic activity would occur. No competent economist agrees with Republicans. And guess what, they tried this to a lesser extent in the Reagan years, and he exploded the deficit like no previous president.

1. I don't know what it will take to get people energized and in the streets. We sure need to be there

We need a million-people march on Washington. Probably two million today. Martin made it happen.

2. I wonder that as well...what will it take?

3. Most are too busy arguing over who should be in the NCAA football playoffs to be

concerned about a tax plan that is being fed to them as a good thing.
