Agree. And, it’s a start.

No one else gets as close to this, as he is.

It’s time!

So, we get more lower income voters off the tax roles, and then they see no problem with raising taxes (on others) and not reforming the corruption-laden tax system. The effects of GWB having done the same are seen in the voting coalition that elected Obama.

Trump's plan is lousy. So long as we have a progressive income tax at all, need to cut rates across the board, except possibly at the bottom end, where instituting a nominal tax rate (1% anyone?) should be considered to get people back on the tax rolls, but not to zero for anyone.

Not true. Not true, at all.

This is Reagan’s tax plan with one additional bracket, a zero percent bracket.

Get rid of the marriage penalty, the death tax, and lower corporate taxes. That, too, is what we want to hear.

Despite the glowing reports of increased income due to lowering taxes, in the past it was used to spend more and not to cut the deficit. Reagan had to deal with a democrat Congress, and GW Bush did, too, for the most part in the Senate for the most part. Bush didn’t really resist spending, and Reagan wasn’t in a position to stop a lot of it.

I do like any plan not to replace retired or departing workers in the Federal government. This natural attrition approach would apply to those who retire, find employment elsewhere, or are fired for obvious, irrefutable cause. There are no aggrieved parties and all employees are treated fairly.
