now that we have "racist" trees, will this also be labeled a "racist" tax cut....because most of the cuts go to whites who pay taxes?

According to Chuck Schumer, America is being messed up.
What do you think? We'll all sure find out when we file this coming spring. |

More importantly, businesses, employees, and investors can go forth, secure in the knowledge that they can retain more of what they make, percentage wise. This should encourage more growth, as consumers buy more, investors invest more, and businesses expand. This also should encourage more foreign investment, more businesses moving to America. |

I just don't know how this will all play out today. That's why I'm asking. The economic recession of the '70's was a real mofo with interest rates to the moon, the gas shortage, and numerous other factors playing into it. Timing is everything, and things are a lot different economically right now. Hopefully now, the economic locomotive throttles up to full speed, and we get stuck in a sweet spot for a while. |

The underlying problem is high property taxes, and that is the fault of local government, not the federal government. What this does is gets folks in high tax states to start getting mad and demanding that those states lessen the tax burden on their citizenry.
Up until now, you had the federal government taking some of the sting out of those high taxes. Now, the people paying them will feel the full impact of them, and I would expect some changes, as a result of taxpayer revolts in those states. Perhaps this will cause some well off people to flee those high tax states, and that's OK, too, because it's good for the low tax states that will be welcoming them. Seems like quite a few here have mentioned either leaving Illinois, or wanting to leave Illinois, for example . |

The municipalities think the same way and waste on excessive political appointed jobs, etc.. Hopefully, the people will demand reform instead of moving out. |
