Trump should resign immediately before the stock market crashes and the blame is put on him. He's opened himself up to that by taking credit for the record highs. He has absolutely no chance to get anything accomplished. He's an amateur politician with a huge case of hubris who couldn't get out of his own way. He has made it easy for his enemies to bring hm down by being thin-skinned, intractable, and coarse. The message to all outsiders is clear, though Trump will still stubbornly refuse to hear it: Do not run for the office of the President if you are not part of the two crime families - er, parties. We will destroy you! Fox News just had Bush family henchman Karl Rove on for his opinion of Trump's latest screw-up - as if he's unbiased. The Republicans have their man Pence in place to take over. Oh well, tax cuts and the repeal of Obamacare were always a pipe dream anyway. America's own version of Mao's Cultural Revolution will continue unabated.I'll let you ban hate speech when you let me define hate speech.

Tax REFORM was not a pipe dream. Everyone wanted that. The longer we go without it, though, I think, the less likely we get a broad rate cut. More and more people are willing to look at the evidence rather than just assume corporates are overtaxed becuase they say they are. The evidence says we should reform tax, but not with a rate cut for corporates. The evidence says we should reform tax with a rate hike for corporates.

You are apparently saying that the tax reform you favor is an increase in the corporate rate to above 35%. But you also say that "everyone wanted that" when talking about tax reform. I can assure you not everyone wants a higher corporate rate. You generally favor doing away with special interest deductions that make up much of our tax code. Do you even understand that at a 40% corporate rate these deductions are worth even more to the corporation whose lobbyists can bend the tax code to their client's wishes.
Got any evidence of anyplace in the world where a high corporate rate has brought economic well-being? (other than the Gulf oil states)Last edited by Da Geezer; August 16, 2017, 03:47 PM.
