Ok, so I just read some guy's post on Yahoo (cause I hate myself) about how Trump is over-taxing the poor, providing HUGE breaks to the 1% (I swear every time I hear ******* 1% I pray a puppy dies somewhere.). He also wants a "dictatorship" and he cant' stand when anyone criticizes him.
Sigh...
Congress, not Trump enacts tax law. Trump can propose a plan, but congress must vote on it and enact it. Regardless, the current tax plan does NOT markedly increase the taxes for the poor. NOBODY ******* INCREASES TAXES ON THE POOR EXCEPT THE ******* DEMOCRATS. The chief complaint, ultimately, is that the current administration hasn't taxed people who make more than $175,000 into the stone age. That's REALLY the *****. It's not, "You're taking what I have." it's "You're not punishing THEM enough."
These fine citizens fail to notice how congress, the democrats included have conveniently targeted the "Rich" as people who make Juuuuust a bit more than THEY do. Bernie ****** Sanders doesn't want to be taxed 60%. But a guy who makes 30 or 40k more a year... ya. **** THAT Guy!
As for Trump wanting to be a dictator... the ugly painful truth is that Obama is the guy who weaponized the FBI, the CIA, the DOJ, and the DOD in order to gather intelligence for the private interests of his administration and party. Obama did that, not Trump. We haven't seen this kind of weaponizing of our policing agencies since Hoover and at least HE was more independent than tied to a specific party. You know who DID weaponize intelligence agencies in order to keep tabs on private citizens for personal reasons? the U.S.S.R.
