Well, Trump wants to cut taxes, Hillary wants to raise them.

It should not be hard to decide for whom we should vote -- along with all the other big differences between the two candidates.

But liberal voters WANT to pay taxes. Remember a few days ago Hitlery said in her speech she plans to raise taxes by $1.3 trillion and everyone in the audience cheered? “Yippeeee! Giving 1/3rd of what I make to the government so they can give it to terror sponsoring countries is SOOOOO awesome!”

The talking point for tomorrow will be along the lines of “How will he PAY for it!”.

I hope Trump is wary of Stephen Moore, he is in favor of cheap labor importation.

Republicans in congress will insist on “pay-fors”. These tax cuts while terrific and classy, will enlarge the deficit enormously.

Liberals want COMPANIES to pay taxes because they are rich, rich, rich and have tons of unused money laying around and is better off distributed to the people.
They never seem to get that corporate taxes makes products more expensive, reduces international competitiveness and it's money that can never show up in your paycheck.

>>Although he did not specify a timeline, Trump has managed to whittle down the cost in terms of lost tax revenue by about two-thirds, to $3 trillion, Moore said.<<

“Lost tax revenue” is a nonsensical term; one having meaning only to the court jesters in Versailles on the Potomac. Reducing taxes is NOT a cost to government. It has been proven time and again that reducing taxes results in economic growth.

Trump needs an ad that focuses on the difference in average take-home pay in a Trump vs Clinton presidency ... or in some way communicates how a Trump presidency will result in an household having more money for their families. Make it real and personal.

The problem is that nearly half of voters pay NO taxes. Pretty sure they don’t give a crap about tax cuts.

Bring those jobs back!! Hire 10 more people.

Yes it makes a difference. A company will spend it. The government will waste it.

It is a nice idea, but almost half of all Americans are not paying taxes. Dunno if they will care.

Any tax burden above 20% is theft.

Noting that I will gladly Vote Trump, federal taxes probably need to be cut a whole lot more than I suspect that Trump and his team are likely thinking. This is because a huge chunk of the taxes that citizens have been paying since the time of the FDR Administration have been unconstitutional imo.

From a related thread, consider the following explanation of how the Founding States had probably envisioned the annual federal budget.

$765,645,000,000: FY2016 Taxes Set Record Through December; $5,107 Per Worker; Feds Still Run…

Four times the amount shown in thread title above is over three trillion dollars. And this is a major constitutional problem, imo, as indicated by the following material.

Note that a previous generation of state sovereignty-respecting justices had clarified that Congress is prohibited from appropriating taxes in the name of state power issues, essentially any issue that Congress cannot justify under its constitutional Article I, Section 8-limited powers. This is evidenced by the following excerpt.

”Congress is not empowered to tax for those purposes which are within the exclusive province of the States.” - Justice John Marshall, Gibbons v. Ogden, 1824.

Based on the Court’s statement above, here is a rough approximation of how much taxpayers should be paying Congress annually to perform its Section 8-limited power duties.

Given that the plurality of clauses in Section 8 deal with defense, and given that the Department of Defense budget for 2015 was $500+ billion, I will generously round up the $500+ billion figure to $1 trillion (but probably much less) as the annual price tag of the federal government to the taxpayers, not the $5 trillion annual budget now being projected for the feds.

In other words, the corrupt media, including Obama guard dog Fx Noise, should not be reporting multi-trillion dollar annual federal budgets in budget discussions without mentioning the Supreme Court’s clarification of Congress’s limited power to appropriate taxes.

Trump supporters need to get him up to speed on the idea that a good percentage of the federal taxes that he and his rich friends have been paying throughout their lives are probably unconstitutional.

Remember in November !

Patriots need to suppoort the Trump / Pence ticket by also electing a new, state sovereignty-respecting Congress that will not only work within its Section 8-limited powers to support Trump’s vision for making America great again for everybody, but will also put a stop to unconstitutional federal taxes and likewise unconstitutional interference in state affairs.

Also, consider that such a Congress would probably be willing to fire state sovereignty-ignoring activist justices.

I know of about three dozen or so federal alphabet agencies and programs, with the lying scheming treasonous bastards that run them, we can get rid of to pay for it all

Well, I sure hope he can get out their and explain to all the dumb asses why everyone needs tax cuts. That it even helps people who aren’t working and paying any income tax.

That’s a monumental feat, explaining tax cuts to brainwashed sheep.

The supply side effect works for both the rich, and the poor.

Why not cut the taxes of the working poor and reward them for working and not going on welfare. Do you realize that 53% of people who qualify for a welfare program do not apply for that program? Only 475 who could be on welfare are.

Those of Mexican ancestry have the lowest participation rate. They have the highest rate of people who qualify to be on a program...and aren’t. It drives the leftist navigators crazy.

I hope Trump plans to cut off funding to other countries, especially those in the middle east. They already hate us, so let’s give them more reason to do so, while helping this country to have lower taxes.
