I decided this morning to listen to what Kate Jackson had to say about this tax bill

and her economic analyst from Yahoo business.
He basically said that he would get a $2100 tax refund how nice and rosy, that he got to brag about, and he also bragged that through "independent analysis" everyone gets a tax break, my answer BS.
And that a lot of people would only get about a $20 per year tax refund after all is said and done, and the those making more with real estate would get a lot like Corker and Trump will get "their pass through", and not pay any tax, because after all they are developers and own property, so all of the other tax payers in this country have to pay these assholes taxes, because they are taking a "chance" in developing the property, and after they, the developer the property they also get a depreciation in the tax, and will be able to write-off this cost and pass it on to everyone else that pays taxes in this country, in other words we , those making less than $75,000 dollars a year are not only supporting this "corporate pass through" through scum bags, but we have to pay our tax bill and theirs, how fucking quaint to get a average $20.00 a year in tax refund , and that he ( the Yahoo economist) also said the he would not be affected with AMT, because now since he makes the threshold amount, everyone below him has to pay his tax, on that earned income, because he doesn't, but he didn't explain that way.
Through out the conversation, not one word was mentioned about the simple fact, that the health care mandate will be gone, this economist, didn't say one word and neither did Jackson on the issue.
So, in this rant these two people are full of shit, and they just reinforce the right wing talking points.
Why, because now that the health care funding has been taken away, thanks to Collins, Murkowski, McCain, Corker, Flake, Heller, and the other elitist of that fucked up party, fucking people out of the ACA mandate, with there twisted logic that somehow, health should be a for-profit industry of the haves and the have not's, because that the way of being america.
If someone gets sick, all the money they may get in a refund will now have to pay off that medical bill, you may be able to write it off, but in the "current" form you have to meet the threshold, that you have paid out of your "total earned income" over 7.6% in medical costs to get the "deduction".
So, if you paid 7.3% into medical costs, well lets' just say your fucked, your left holding the bill, with no means to write -off that cost. Because now instead of being able to write-off all that money you gave to the insurance company to help pay for your monthly bill, well if it isn't 7.6% then you can't claim it.
But don't worry, they, the kelpto fascist republicans in the Congress of the United States being run by kelpto fascist called republicans get their health care while, the sick will now have to compete against the so called healthy, and all of that "refund" money will have go to health care costs, that whopping $20.00, because after all the sick have to subsidize the healthy to stay off health insurance.
To all of those that have responded, I meant to say Kate Jackson and not Katy Tur and I do apologize............
= new reply since forum marked as read
what is really disingenuous is that she even had this conversation, it meant totally nothing, no solutions, just effect for some rating
