So are you basically saying peoples income should be restricted based on the potential debt they could get into? That's what it sounds like. Or did I just misunderstand?

not at all...I'm just saying that the American people will spend any "extra money" they get... 

 

Quote:I am using a single filer making $47,000 - $54,000 a year as an example.. Donald Trump wants to lower the tax you pay by over $8,000 per year. Think about that for a minute......

 

Ok, are you back now? What do you think people do with this extra income? They do things that they maybe couldn't do before. They buy new TV's, they go out to dinner more frequently, they hire lawn services, tree trimmers, go to movies, go bowling, go on an extra vacation.


 

Now, picture millions upon millions of people doing this with their newly found extra income, which in turn means millions upon millions of new workers will need to be hired.


 

From what I have seen, people say Trump's plan won't work because it will only increase the debt. Will it?

 

Edit: And by the way, that same income bracket will still pay the same amount of taxes under Hillary Clinton's plan.

this is the part of your post I was responding to

 

will it increase the debt? with nothing to offset the loss in tax money not collected from paychecks yes it will...you cant subtract more money from an account that's already having insufficient funds without going deeper in debt
