Pic Of The Moment: CBO Confirms Republican Tax Plan Even Worse Than First Thought

[EarlG]

Senate GOP tax bill hurts the poor more than originally thought, CBO finds

[Wounded Bear]

1. Don't worry, they'll fix it later, before it really hurts anybody...

In case you didn't grab the intent:

[underpants]

2. $1.4 is the key to them

That allows them, as I understand it, to use reconciliation instead of needing 60 votes.

[C Moon]

3. We are defininately fighting a class war.

And the GOP manages to get low-mid income idiots to help fight their battles for them—along with those boneheads who have a million dollars in the bank, and pretend to be in the 1%. The latter group is in for a rude awakening.

[Achilleaze]

4. This needs to go viral

k and r

[flamingdem]

5. People don't realize this anvil is about to drop on their heads

Total scam and robbery by the GOP

[ffr]

6. Spend and spend Russians, I mean Republicans doing what they do best, explode the deficit

And hurt our country.

[dalton99a]

7. It is large-scale organized looting for the rich, by the rich

[babylonsister]

17. Yes. I am still amazed

so many people are on board with this. And disgusted beyond measure.

[ProudMNDemocrat]

8. We take from the Poor and keep it.....

is the mantra of the GOP then as it is now.

Those that voted for Trump and still support him, will be shocked as to how they will be hurt the most.

[Gothmog]

9. K&R

[Amimnoch]

10. Once the economy crashes again, we'll put in another Democrat to fix it again. nt.

The stupid.. it hurts.

[niyad]

11. and does this surprise any of us here?

[tclambert]

12. But, Earl, they aren't PAYING for the tax cuts. They are borrowing $1.4 trillion.

And the taxpayers who don't get cuts (=the middle class) will have to pay back that money. So it transfers that $1.4 trillion obligation from wealthy taxpayers to working class taxpayers.

They will claim the tax breaks for the wealthy will create jobs. I have never heard of any hiring manager at a multi-billion dollar corporation say, "Hey, we need to hire more people because our CEO got a bigger tax refund." They'd get fired for suggesting something that stupid.

[Fritz Walter]

13. I'm speechless!

[marble falls]

14. Whew! I was worried you stepped away from this feature!....

good stuff as always!

[liberalla]

15. I need to print this out... thanks!

[mdbl]

16. Are any repugs fiscally responsible anymore?

what a bunch of loser idiots.

[yuiyoshida]

18. The Republican party is not a Political party , they are

a National criminal organization.
