House gives final approval to tax reform bill
Fox News ^ | 12/20/2017 | Judson Berger

Posted on 12/20/2017 10:06:21 AM PST by Cato in PA

The House gave the final stamp of approval Wednesday to a sweeping tax reform package, handing President Trump his first major legislative victory and most Americans a tax cut starting next year.

In a 224-201 vote, Congress sent the $1.5 trillion package to Trump’s desk. The biggest rewrite of the federal tax code since the Reagan administration will usher in steep rate cuts for American companies, double the deduction millions of families claim on their annual returns and make a host of other changes taking effect in a matter of weeks.

I wouldn’t be so excited about ONE thing if i was a southerner.

I already know a number of NYers who are talking about heading to confederate land because they can’t deduct states taxes like they used to :)

Get ready for the liberal influx :)

And good riddance to them!

I would have paid the same just to see the effect of the corporate tax cut and the repatriation of stranded corporate earnings.

Virginia has already been ruined by people fleeing New York, New Jersey, Connecticut, Massachusetts.
NC is not far behind.

This is awesome now democrats/communists are on suicide watch and less than a week after Trump killed their precious communist soros net neutrality!

Trump saved America in several ways by stopping several democrat plans any of which alone would have destroyed America ..
.
1.Trump stopped Obama’s policy of adding 97,000 pages of government regulations per year

http://www.breitbart.com/big-government/2016/12/30/obama-oversees-record-year-regulation-97000-pages/

3. Hillary was planning on dissolving the USA border and letting millions of Muslims and illegals in and giving the all amnesty and hillary care to have a voting army for full socialism.
http://www.breitbart.com/2016-presidential-race/2016/05/25/clinton-releases-plan-dissolve-us-border-within-100-days/

4. Trump and Pia destroyed Soros’ and Obama’s net neutrality
5. Net Neutrality was just one move in a sequence of events to completely take over the internet. A sequence that happened so slowly none of you noticed it happening at all: This lays it all out :
http://boards.4chan.org/pol/thread/152760068/the-globalist-takeover-of-the-internet

6.Soros funded and is behind this “net neutrality”
http://ijr.com/2015/03/270555-soros-groups-dropped-82-million-push-net-neutrality-interesting-thing-happened-placeholder/

99% of Americans are not even aware of even 1 of these links that show that democrats would have destroyed America in a few years with. Yet every American should read these links to see the threat we are under.

And these are just things that I am aware of . There could be other plots and threats from democrats. As these prove America and Freedom last as long as Trump is president and not much longer after that 3 years at most .

On the other hand, residents of New York state may finally begin to demand lower state taxes.

Woohoo, America just got a raise.

In addition to tax cuts, billions of dollars are now freed up for corporations to grant raises to their employees using money that would otherwise got to Washington.

Naysayers will say that they will just use the money to buy things, like new technology or factory improvement. Capital improvement means the company can make more or better products, which means they can sell more product that will cost them less to make and can pass along some raises to their employees.

Either way, America gets a pay raise.

Thank you to President Trump, Speaker Ryan and Leader McConnell.

Saw President Trump testify before Congress on the state of money affairs c 1989. (They called him)

He knows what to do and how to get there.

The bonus was getting rid of the damn mandate.

But don't wait for any Dem to thank President Trump.

Excellent!

Now watch Trump sign it today or tomorrow - he’s not the kind of person to waste time.

Southwest Airlines has ALREADY said that if this bill becomes law, it will begin to expand its fleet of aircraft (and they buy ONLY Boeing - so highly-skilled and highly-paid AMERICAN workers will benefit). Way to go, President Trump!

WINNING!

P.S. President Trump, I am very disappointed that you seem unable to fulfill one of your campaign promises...I am STILL not tired of winning. :>)
