“Working people” is union speak for union members. If someone owns a business or works for a nisi less that is not unionized, they are not working people.
The wealthy ARE working people.
How does Trumka think they became wealthy?
By putting in long hours and working hard.
Because of the way the tax bill tries to limit deficits while initiating massive rate cuts, lower income households will end up with higher taxes. Politicians, including Republican ones, have finely-honed survival instincts. This tax reform bill is probably DOA. A straightforward Obamacare repeal would have funded the tax cuts. Without the repeal, the bottom 3/4 will have to foot the bill to avoid hundreds of billions of dollars in additional deficits per year, on top of the $1T we are stacking up today.
Translation...the union isn't going to get any more money to support Democrats so it's a bad plan.
I just got a 4x5 camera with a normal-ish 215mm and wide 90mm lens. I’m going to load up some sheet film and have fun.
Eventually, civilization will collapse around our ears. I have enough ammo to last a couple of days. Gonna be nasty the day lenders refuse to buy any more U.S. Govt. Bonds.
Of course Commie Trumka doesn’t like it. He doesn’t like capitalism and will only be happy when we become the United Soviet Socialist States of America. The old anti-communist AFL-CIO leaders have probably been proverbially spinning in their graves since he was elected.
I always preferred the Camino over the Ranchero.
So overwhelmingly true. Not one centsworth of stocks is held by pension plans of unions and private people. /sarc
I’ve been paying union dues for 30 years and have been screwed on every issue the union takes a stance on. Is anyone surprised that this would be comrade trumpka’s response? Of course the union’s couldn’t have been more surprised last November 8. I think this tax plan will bring even more rank and file off the big labor reservation.
You got it! If you lower the taxes on the people who are running the country they will spend. Frankly, I would of supported anything that would lower the taxes on the rich before, but,now I believe that the only way to make conservatives out of the same is when they have a lot of taxes to pay. We give lower taxes to the same people who are destroying our borders, running up deficits, won't stand for the national anthem along with their owners who let it go, who own the liberal press. I know they are the"job creators", well that was valid until they started sending jobs abroad and bringing their cheap labor coolies.No I am done helping these free loaders lower their taxes.Let them pay them.
The later model Ranchero hood just didn’t look right to me,looked like an LTD with a truck bed.
Yes, AFL-CIO we know your real complaint. You favor the blue states with their high taxes and their absence of right to work laws, and the tax changes won’t be felt as hard in the lower taxed states, many of which have right to work laws.
