Certain times of the year that area is bumper to bumper but I’m glad you got off the main roads. :-) E. TN is a beautiful state. I have only been to W.TN once but I wasn’t impressed. We were traveling and had to go through Memphis so we didn’t see much except for Memphis. Middle TN is also beautiful. I like my mountains.
All of the non- itemizing lemmings and Goyim on this thread who are celebrating the chump change tax cut that the Goldman Sachs mieskeits Mnuchin and Cohn gave them in exchange for STEALING their tax deductions should remember that the “tax cuts” expire in 2026.
Jesus Christ some people are so gullible.
Now blue state politicians can no longer hide behind the federal tax code when they raise state income taxes. A real killer for the blue states. They need to do something, more exodus coming.

A 20% import tariff would generate $500B in revenue and make domestic industry more competitive and bring back millions of manufacturing jobs.
We need to keep the nationalist economic agenda going....
Wall wall wall!
Oh well find something else to do if you’re business is running on fumes..aka “razor thin” margins. I smell bullsh*t whining here in this post. I was like you keeping a BS business going, lying to my family and friends, until I decided to offer a service which made real money and didn’t have to worry about the whims of politicians.
I am sure Pres. Trump wanted all marginal rates reduced. But the swamp Senate wouldn’t allow it. Don’t blame Trump. He got what he could.
McCain is pathetic. The guy is dying fast and he uses his remaining time to once again give the Republican party and the American middle class the middle finger.
The only people who will mourn his passing will be other liars and traitors-his kindred spirits.
OH yeah, I will believe Snopes before my CPA that I have been with for decades. No thanks
Are you saying you pay tax based on your gross income, not your net income?
What I am saying is that major deductions that I used to be able to take are GONE!!!!! AND I am a very small ranch operation, little over 60 head. The Government has been trying to break little farmers and ranchers for years. Here it is.
Who will choose to be in that disaster of a federal program?
Everybody that gets free coverage. A lot of people.
“I don’t think you understand. It is not the local tax that I was worried about it is my federal deductions. Like for equipment, fuel, seed, feed, etc. BYE BYE”
I call BS!
You buy feed.
You spent ‘x’ amount of money on it, so you have a net income of ‘y’ - ‘x’ = ‘z’
Your argument is: I no longer can reduce my income by deducting ‘feed’ and the like.
In essence, your new equation is: Income ‘y’ (let’s call it $300,000) = Net ‘z’ even though you spent $225,000 on expenses ‘x’. Your CPA says you pay tax on $300,000 rather than $75,000.
As I stated: pure BS.
Yup. But you can take comfort knowing that more of your money will now be going to Takers who now qualify for EITC ca$h giveaways under this bill. And corporations like Google and Facebook make out like bandits. They were really hurting, you know.
For the millions of small business owners the 20% pass-through deduction will be a blessing.
I own a small business and am not rich by any means, we make a modest income. The 20% deduction help us to re-invest into the business as we will buy more capital equipment and hire additional people. Thank you Mr. Trump. MAGA.
Wow. Just wow. Welcome to the new GOPe Crazy Clown Cult. You are mocking and belittling a Conservative businessman who is going to be bleeding because of higher Federal taxes? Sick. Shame on you.
At any time, Trump could have picked up the phone and told Mnuchin and Cohn to change course.
True. McCain couldn’t stand being “not needed” and not being able to grab the limelight of attention by being able to stop the bill.
He would have - if he could have.
Get back to us on that, it doesn’t ring true.
