This guy should do some research and actually look at Trump’s tax plan on Trump’s campaign web site.

Some morons or trolls don’t seem to understand that TRUMP wants to WIN ( and NOT to lose like romney and mc cain the tools )and that in that campaign he will try to divide the dhimmyrats , to get the flip-floppers votes and even those who can’t stand Ill-ary .....

So try to think twice about strategy to WIN instead of shouting ....One step at a time

How does this tax plan square with Trump's newly professed support for "raising taxes on the wealthy"?

I think Trump means Wall Street's tax code shenanigans that allow hedge fund income to go untaxed. Considering Hillary's oddles of Wall Street bribes ... excuse me, "speaking fees" ... and that Chelsea is married to a hedge fund, the author might ask exactly who is inconsistent.

I support Trump on taxes, cutting top marginal rates increase tax collections on the wealthiest. Trump isn’t a great communicator, that’s all.

I'll vote for Trump or Cruz, but I'm putting most of my effort into making parachutes.

Trump is going to simplify the tax code (i.e. cut out loopholes). Loopholes have been used by the rich to often pay taxes at extremely low effective rates.

Simplifying the tax code will mean that the rich will pay taxes at ordinary income rates like the rest of American workers. That's an increase in taxes on the rich.

Furthermore, by eliminating the "carried interest" provision from the tax code, billionaire hedge fund managers will not be able to avoid paying taxes at ordinary income rates.

I don’t believe for one second that Trump believes he’s not paying enough taxes.

I also don’t believe he’s not aware of this age-old game.

Yet — while so many have their attention focused on him — instead of simply explaining it to the American people so they can understand it once and for all (as a businessman who comprehends it could do very easiily), he goes along with it and perpetuates the myth.

Honestly, eliminate the loopholes and the amount paid by “the rich,” even if tax rates are reduced, goes up.

From DT’s website:

“Reducing or eliminating most deductions and loopholes available to the very rich.”

Ethics question. Would we be correct in assuming that DT knows all the ways the tax system benefits the wealthy and uses that system to his own benefit and knows that it is “unfair and cheating” the nation of income that could, for my favorite expense, buy parts for our Marine Corps jets?

If it is ok for DT to work the system, why is it not ok for candidates to use the delegate nomination system established within each party to win?

Some people have no business writing articles that even remotely touch on economic issues. You can lower tax rates, but increase tax revenues at the same time. Indeed, that's exactly what the Laffer Curve is all about. Just look at what happened to tax receipts after the Kennedy and Reagan tax cuts.

For reasons I do not understand, we romanticize the poor in this country and vilify the rich? Why? The rich are the investors and risk-takers who make this economic system work. How many of you were hired by a poor person?

I'm living off SS and in the past 6 years I've had a 0.2% increase in benefits and had my payment redefined so it's now an entitlement. Really? I paid into that system for 44 years and I will only breakeven at the current benefit level if I live to be 137 years old. At the same time, transfer payments to deadbeats are up 31% under this clown. Free cell phones? How does that make sense, other than buying votes?

And to the Hollywood phonies and Buffet's of the world who complain that taxes are too low, why haven't you opened your checkbook and written a huge check to the IRS? If you don't do that, the STFU...the rest of us out here are struggling under this administration.
