Criticized by Republican presidential rivals as having a loose grip on policy, Donald Trump will lay out a tax plan on Monday that he said will increase the burden on hedge fund managers, cut rates for corporations and the middle class, and eliminate payments for more of the poor.

Sounds great, but how do you pay for it??
“It will be yyyuge! It’s the greatest tax plan ever!”
Well lets see, he has just announced his ‘gun plan’ and he has announced his ‘immigration plan’ and now his ‘tax plan’ and all I hear is ‘he’s not doing anything’....
Were are all the others on their ‘plans’??????????????????
cricket, cricket, cricket....
Trump is holding a press conference at 11 AM today to announce it
It does sound great.
Polls are pumping up Carson again.
Of course polls being polls....
Hedge fund managers manipulate the market and make billions and don't pay taxes. Make them pay.
It isn't rocket science. Do we have a situation where corporations want low taxes for themselves, but not for individual taxpayers? US citizens are fed up with the "trickle up" economy that's destroying the US.
Lets start with Corporate tax cuts which will bring companies and their revenue streams under code. Today they harbor in other countries to avoid our punitive rates, the highest in the world
All part of the plan, cheap labor pools to be exploited for products we buy like sheep for cheap and the consumption engine runs...
They want to be US based and all of that but not how it is today...
Just one example
Thje tax code by its very nature breeds costs to companies and individuals, in my opinion after a lot of research shows we should not be paying tax on income we make from working. That is a net even trade of time/services for pay, no net gain. Income tax was a wealth tax on investment income NOT personal but we are talking Wilsonian progressive “for the children” times and the rise of Sangers “Planned Parenthood” (population control and management) by the elites
So in closing there is more money that will come in legally and gladly than is currently happening
And as to the hedge fund crowd, they are the punks playing in derivatives which were a core element of the 2008 Financial bailout
And they are still playing that game...
So many criminals, we may have to make the punishments far more severe...
I can only hope
It matters not what tax plan is out there. The complaint will be the same, “Tax cuts for the 1%.”
The details will make no difference. I’d like Trump to get behind the Fair Tax. But to fully implement it, it would need a constitutional amendment. Trump might be somebody that could pull that off. That would certainly increase my interest in his candidacy.
Any tax plan that does not include 100% participation is a failure.
We can debate different levels of participation at different levels of income. Fine.
But if some people are paying nothing, then their motivation will be to have MORE government spending. Then future elections will have both sides seeking to have LESS people paying taxes and MORE government spending.
Trump’s taxation plan is feeble. Surprising since his immigration and gun plans are very solid.
I don’t know. I think everyone should have skin in the game. I don’t much like the idea of some people not having to pay any taxes at all. We’re all part of the same club...dues are due.
Agree. Flat tax rate - you make less, you pay less. Everyone should pay something.

Yes, we need the Flat Tax, and a return to the voting standards under which the nation was founded.
No Tax, no vote.

He has the best immigration and gun plans of any candidate. If he sticks close to what he proposed in his book “Time To Get Tough” on taxes, he will also have the best Tax Plan.
Pundits are always spinning that Trump is just bluster, but he has the most solid proposals of any candidate.

You forgot to scream, and throw your panties on the stage, in total adoration.

Yep. I’m looking forward to Cruz’s immigration plan. Other than massive increase he proposes in the H-1B Visa program of course.
All three cable networks are carrying Obama speaking at the U.N. I think Trump picked a bad time for his news conference.
.
First learn to read.
Then read the book written by the only legitimate candidate in the race, entitled “Time For Truth.”
Kills those imaginary crickets that are spoiling your sleep.
.
He wants to use IRS, just like the rest inside the beltway, to pick and choose winners and losers.
