Donny Deutsch flunked 1st Grade math.
Next time, better bring some oversized, colored blocks to demonstrate.
Donnie, here’s an example you may be able to comprehend:
You and I go to a restaurant and order a pizza. It costs $15. Unfortunately, we discover you’re just about broke, and only have $2 to contribute. I pay for the rest.
Because I’m not a jerk, I let you have a larger portion than your $2 would entitle you to, and that’s fine, although not really fair to me.
Later, the waiter comes back and says, “We’re sorry, we overcharged you by $5. Here you go!”
Donnie, you put in $2 and I put in $13. What percentage of the $5 coming back do you feel you’re entitled to? 50%? If you say anything less than that, you’re a hypocrite. If you say 50%, you’re an jerk.
Which is it, Donnie?
The intent of the cuts are to stimulate the economy, not create more welfare! Welfare is not a stimulus program. Libs have a different set of metrics for sucess. More welfare, more government programs = dependency = votes = dem sucess.
Actualy another universe of which they know nothing.
“Welfare is not a stimulus program.”
Here in Seattle it sure is. Over the years they have kept increasing funding for homeless people. You should see the huge number of people camped out along the freeways now!
This supports my theory that liberals are so angry and destructive simply because they are very ignorant. It is an ignorance born of either laziness or narcissism or a combination of the two.
The laziness is self explanatory and the narcissism leads them to believe that they know it all. Understanding the truth of things always takes study, an open mind and hard work.
Absolutely, and put a 1/2% tax on every stock transaction.
NO! Everyone pays. The sooner kids realize what’s happening with their money the sooner they’ll drop the kool-aid liberal talking points.
*************************************************************
Totally agree!!! Not sure if you really meant “everyone” but it is my position that even those on welfare of any kind should pay something, even if it is just 1%. These people like the rest of us should also be subject to EVERY tax increase as well as every tax cut.
In this way they certainly would sit up and take notice when the Liberals advocate for tax increases or the Conservatives advocate for tax cuts. The way it is now those who pay nothing, care nothing if taxes are increased because it has no effect on them. Yet these same people WHINE when they are told they will get nothing when taxes are cut. The idea of not getting a reduction in that which you must pay when you pay nothing to begin with is foreign to these people.
There is nothing like having “skin in the game” to keep ones interest in matters such as this at a peak level. There would be little support for tax increases if those on welfare knew they would be subject to same.
” it is a tax cut for the rich.”
That is what the socialist gods tell them so they can’t get past it.

I mean everyone pays All should have skin in the game.
Everybody who works should pay an equal rate of taxes on all amounts after a standard deduction.
Otherwise the system is as socialist as it is.
Don’t forget a 35% tax on all foreign remittances, esp to Mehico! If they’re not paying income tax on their illegal earnings, they should pay tax on sending it out of country.
Rand Paul is not the brightest bulb. Tax cuts create JOBS and provide living wages w/o more welfare.
Tax brackets have always been higher for the wealthiest. I recall 25% in 66 and 67 in the Army. Basic Econ 201 MRC =’s MRP. You lower taxes and you have more production/cost efficiency/and more workers.
You have any Indian in you?
