Heading to Trump's desk for signature.

Incredible news. Even more incredible is the fact Trump managed to do in 11 months what Obama couldn't do in 8 years. Put more money in the middle class' pockets.

The dems somehow think that voters with larger paychecks are going to be upset and flip the house and senate next year.

Dow closing in on 25k, up 5k in one year, tax cuts (including a removal of the individual mandate for ACA, which was MY biggest problem with it) stronger borders, GDP growth up, unemployment down, job creation up, ISIS control in Middle East down...

God... this dude is such a turd. Can't believe he was voted POTUS.

Oh good, my taxes go down for a few years then spike again, but that's ok because Comcast will still only be paying 21% of whatever it doesn't hide offshore to tell me I can't use Netflix.

Tax cuts for regular joes will last til 2026 (9 years)
Part of the tax plan encourages that overseas money to be brought back to the US.

Tell me again how a corporation's (such as Comcast) tax being lowered affects you negatively?
(Hint: It doesn't)
Matter of fact, workers of such corporation's likely will see their wages increase (ya know, if ya actually earn it) as wages have been the only thing stagnant in the economy.
As it pertains to the company I work for (small business) once these tax breaks for them go into effect we've essentially been promised company wide wage increases and they're bringing back annual bonuses.

Ok Mr. Schumer, gonna go with the Comcast road huh?

I'm gonna go down the road of the 5 guys I know who own small businesses and are going to use the 14% going back into their pockets to grow their businesses and hire people.

Watch the empoyment numbers spike and the GDP Jump also.

Who own small business, yes.

Your people can choose to focus on the Comcast/Walmarts, but the reality of the matter is, small business has a voice again and can grow.

Yep. Not sure how else to describe a group of people upset about the middle class taking home more of their hard earned money simply because they aren't the ones who thought of the idea.

I don't think that the tax cuts will result in higher wages. I have a feeling companies will just pocket more money. The tax cuts for the middle class are nice but I think it is a fairy tale to believe that this will somehow result in higher wages. The video in that article is funny/sad if you want to give it a view.

More opportunity typically results in higher wages.

...by borrowing it!  All he did was cut taxes.   More money in our pockets, more debt for all of us. 

Now, if he manages to cut spending, then I'll be impressed.

I’m a small business owner and I will be hiring 0% more people, give out 0% raises, and be pocketing 100% more of the extra money now not going to taxes.

The debt doubled under Obama. He accumulated more debt than all of the other US Presidents combined. Now all of a sudden, the left has become fiscally responsible complaining about adding 1.5T to the debt. Give me a break...

The idea of a tax cut without any spending cut is like someone took out a mortgage on your property and handed you the money. And you think you just got rich. But once you spend the money, all you have is more debt.

That is your prerogative as a business owner. If your goal is to grow your business and you are able to do that without hiring more people, then you have a pretty good business model. Kudos.

The reverse is also true, isn't it?  Republicans complained about all the additions to the debt under Obama, but now it's just fine and dandy.
