The overwhelming majority will be happy.

Not in 10-20 years when an Obama type uses the same illegal unconstitutional power to take away your freedoms and your money.

There's no such thing as "benevolent tyranny".

it should boost the overall economy.

I just heard this morning that the new tax bill contains a provision that assesses a 15.5% tax on offshore corporate profits which are repatriated to the US during 2018.

That's going to put Saturn V rocket engines on the US economy. Everyone will benefit.

Need a crystal ball to prognosticate that far out. The U.S. President could be another MAGA type Pres in 10 to 20 years. If it’s not keep up the political fight.

Yes, because the signing was a last minute add. A full ceremony was planned to be done the first week of January, but POTUS decided to fulfill a promise he made about having it done and signed before Christmas, which happened to be mentioned this morning by several news organizations.

Approximately $4 Trillion of off-shore cash expected to return to the US.

Yep. Trump's 'economic stimulous' bill didn't cost the taxpayers a nickel, and it will actually work!

That’s what is going to really kill the democrats. That money will be taxed as it arrives in the US banks, and then it’ll help companies to build and compete here on US soil. I also expect to see many companies hire tons of people. It’s about time we had a republican president that isn’t afraid to take full-advantage of the bully pulpit. This is why the left hates Trump so much.

The ending the best part. In answer to the last question he said, “We’ve spent $7Trillion in the Mideast not counting the lives and the heartache...it’s time to rebuild infrastructure right here.”

The government always incentivizes to do less. I hate that.

FLAT TAX, Bro, at 10% -15% across the board. No more of this regressive government bullsh#t.

The employer mandate is still in effect. I think Trump can change the 30 hour work week by EO. Also can change employee number from 50 back to 100....or make it 200.

The bakery case at the USSC is important.

The government shouldn't be able to force me to participate in anyones wedding.

Ordinary folks...income $30,000 - $75,000 made a ton of money in the stock market.

Yes, that employer mandate stunts businesses. But the individual mandate is huge, IMO. A LOT of people have the worthless bronze plan only because they think they have to.

In my case, I’m so old and insurance is so expensive that the 8% rule protects me from the penalty.

But never Trumpers. Never Trumpers make sure to always add a negative spin to any achievement or accomplishment. Their job is to help sow fear, uncertainty and doubt.

See that beautiful, glorious sunrise? Damn shame the sun has to go down later in the day. What an adorable baby. Too bad she will grow old and die.

Sorry, I thought I was on the thread discussing the EO blocking property transactions.

Tax cuts.

Well, let's put it this way. IMO, there is great reason to believe that 80% of the feds is unconstitutional, so our job, "should we choose to accept it", is to do whatever it takes to dismantle this unconstitutional 80% portion of the feds. If we are to recover our Free Constitutional Republic, that MUST happen.

Mission Impossible? Sure, but we have the Divine Providence of God Almighty on our side. Trump is evidence of that. The fight for faith and freedom is worth it.

Anyway, once the feds are in their constitutional cage and KEPT there, there will be much less force of resistance against getting a flat tax of 10%-15% and the IRS will be a storefront. Dancing in the streets.

My definition of MAGA - the ultimate goal we should all be aiming for - is the RESTORATION of our FREE CONSTITUTIONAL REPUBLIC.

THAT means dismantling the unconstitutional 80% portion of the feds.

We do that, and spending and debt will disappear as any significant problem.

Sorry, no.

We’re happy because the government is LETTING us keep more of OUR hard-earned money? Having more money of course is a good thing. But look at the numbers. The $77K + shouldn’t be paying 20-30-something % to the feds who waste our hard-earned money like a drunken sailor.

Be happy, as I said, but treat it as the first shot over the bow and have an attitude that much more tax cuts should be forthcoming.

That picture of Scrooge belongs on the faces of all the corrupt governmental officials who DON’T want you to keep your hard-earned money. They think it belongs to them. And if you don’t keep fighting, they’ll take it all back and much more.

I heard the stock market is going up, up, up.

Wife just said there’s a lot of people who are going to be loving on Trump.

And in 2018 he needs to constantly let the people know that not one Dem voted for the tax cuts and that’s why he needs them to vote for the Republican. The Dems are going to get stomped in 2018.
