The whole point of stealing deductions from W-2 workers was to pay of the national debt and fully fund Social Security.

Spurring corporate activity and making american corporations competitive could have been accomplished by just cutting the corporate rate to 21%

The middle class is going to pay so much more in taxes when the “cuts” expire in 5 years, coupled with increased revenue from corporate activity, that the DC scumbags won’t know what to do with all of the cash.

Federal Workers will be getting three times what the private sector workers get instead of only double like they do now.

If you are speaking of the withholding of taxes from paychecks, that was instituted during WW2 to pay for the c0st of war.

Federal workers will not get 3x the private cost of living, Trump has already committed to 1.9. According to most studies on the issue, the private workforce is overpaid by 35%. The automatic increase in fedpay, by formula calls for a 25% increase this year which the President rightly says is “unwarranted.”

Ultimately pay is set by Congress and I do not believe it will oppose Trump.
