Ivanka teams with Norquist to boost tax-reform efforts
Washingron Times ^ | 9-6-17 | David Sherfinski

Posted on 09/07/2017 9:29:51 AM PDT by TheErnFormerlyKnownAsBig

Ivanka Trump, the president’s daughter and a top adviser, jumped into the administration’s tax reform push on Wednesday, joining conservatives to promote an expansion of the child tax credit and later appearing onstage with her father at an event in North Dakota.

Ms. Trump told conservative leaders that the administration is pushing for “the largest child tax credit possible,” potentially doubling it to $2,000 per child, and said she wants to make it refundable against payroll taxes so that lower-income people who pay little or no federal income tax would still benefit.

More of the same. If we do not go to a flat tax or straight rates with zero exemptions we will always have an intrusive government.

I think he lets her speak and may even half agree with her...but he knows....it's all about deals.

I look to Mnuchin. and Trump for the end game.

10% for everyone. No deductions, credits, or loopholes for anyone. Everyone pays the same flat rate.

Norquist needs to be kept away from the White House. He’s GOPe and a full-on islam lover. And why in God’s name is Ivanka working on tax policy?

This twit doesn’t have the slightest experience beyond being a Manhattan princess and fashion sales.

Exactly. I’m so sick and tired of handing out “credits” for this and that masquerading as tax reform. Cut taxes, eliminate deductions and credits. Simplify the tax code.

NOT Norquist. He’s an Islam lover along with McMaster.

“Ivanka Trump ... said she wants to make it refundable against payroll taxes so that lower-income people who pay little or no federal income tax would still benefit.”

I.e., another welfare give away.

Are Javanka channeling Jorge Bush and his MediPill program? We finally oust the Dims and the Republicans advocate for more welfare?

No, thanks.

I’m all for an across the board flat tax rate. No exemptions, no deductions, no filing of returns. You give 1 dollar out of every 10 that you earn to the feds, and that’s it. And that will be all that the feds are allowed to take.

Thank you ...needed to be said as clearly and concisely as you put it. Never overlook or forget Norquist's traitorous alliances.

Well that would certainly take the fun out of being a Senator or Congressman.

I’m willing to negotiate on the rate, but we change our relationship with the government when we get rid of all the exemptions and go to a straight flat tax and that’s why the politolicians will never do it.

Right now the federal government is a business it’s pretty production output is wealth transfer from one generation to another from 1 segment of society to another and from 1 industry to another. Wealth transfer Is how they make their money and how they maintain their power.
