Democrats have big issues with the 2017 tax overhaul. But it trimmed taxes for many middle-class households, and that makes a repeal very tricky

They consistently propose paring back the law’s tax cuts for top earners and corporations, in part to generate billions of dollars to help pay for their plans on health care, climate change, student debt and more.

You mean it wasn't just for the wealthy? That's it, I'm not watching CNN anymore.

Liars. It increased taxes for more middle-class households, you Trunts.

Paying down the national debt is tricky, there’ll be blood sweat and tears all around!

Please Dems: Repeal an act with great benefit to middle class! PLEASE The 2017 Tax Overhaul is for those Middle Class peasants you secretly despise! Show us that your really for the Rich Royalty! BreitbartNews POTUS business BreitbartNews VP

Lies. It made rich people richer. It made the rest of us lose our tax returns.

It doesn't need to be repealed. Just raise the top tax rate back to where it was and treat all income as income. If billionaires cannot hide their money at lower rates as interest and dividends, they will have to invest and take risks.

Sure, let's repeal the tax cuts and send companies and jobs overseas, cut GDP growth in half, double minority unemployment, eliminate wage growth...only an economic illiterate would support that...that would be the Dims.

It only cost me and the wife $4,000

lol Democrats can't even fix the SALT cap because they don't want to be seen as cutting taxes for rich (mostly) white ppl. They are completely lost

wow, do you guys just lie for the sake of lying? I mean is it now an obsession with how much you can get away with?
