    Does this mean that tax deductions that are taken for investing in people and the economy, etc., will be reduced or eliminated?

    The republicans want to take away the middle class house deduction and tax the poor two per cent more so they can pay for tax breaks for billionaires.

    And thanks to the GOP and NRA for all those ultra liberal gun laws that have resulted in so many mass murders.

    Henry is stating Republican analysis of what is proposed so far — taxpayers in states with high state income taxes may get hurt by the Republican tax plan:

    Therefore, tax cuts for the rich are the best thing in the world.

    Another win for Henry and the other Trump Disciples.

    I’m not worried about the fat cats, the Republicans will give them tax breaks to off-set their tax deductions. Then they won’t have to do anything, they will just keep the money. Much easier than having to deal with payrolls or charities.

    I am more concerned about the rest of the county that will lose their programs to heartless tax reform. But if this is what Payne focuses on in these times, I’m not surprised, there is not much good news for the pro-pollution, pro-gun right wing fool now-a-days.

    I get it, Payne. You figure all those Heartland folks are going to agree with your tripe about “sticking it to the coasts”. But eventually, your plutocrat masters are going to come after the stuff they hold dear, like the mortgage interest deduction. What are you going to do then? I don’t suppose you’ll defend that, though. You got into Princeton, so you can’t be that stupid.

    In Payne’s world, the rich have no obligation to the society that lets them live so well. In Payne’s world everything they have, they have because they worked hard. Oh sure, they have police to protect them and their fancy houses and cars, they have air traffic controllers so they can travel to Paris for dinner and to Zurich for dessert. They even get their own special line at the TSA. They have national flood insurance in case their beach houses get washed away. Hell, there’s even an army, navy and air force to protect their international investments. In fact, they make even more money when the bullets begin to fly. And then, when their stupidity and greed nearly land us in a depression as they nearly did a decade ago, they’re too big to fail, to big to jail and we’ve no choice but to bail their sorry behinds out of trouble on the double. But in Payne’s world, they owe nothing to anybody.

    They set us one against the other. White against Black, Christian against Muslim, rural against urban, coast against heartland. Not to mention native against immigrant. And it seems to be working. Payne’s just another tool in the kit to keep us at each other’s throats so we don’t realize we’re being played for a bunch of suckers.

    End of rant.

    “Fat cats” that manage to own their own home because they can deduct the interest on their mortgage.

    And yet, this would hit conservatives as well. Payne is a pain
