What an excellent point.
 
get it done...
the corporate side is just about right 20% -cut the loopholes
the individual side is still up for grabs- much as I'd like to seethe silly practice of allowing deductions for state-
nobody should face a tax increase because of tax reform..get it done however it shakes out
 
I disagree. We don't require an examination of tax returns for any other executive function that I'm aware of.

Congress codifies and legislates, not presidents.

You'll note that Silly Billy isn't screaming to see Botox Pelosi's returns.

'Nice to know' is not a requirement.

If the current tax code is allowing billionaires to escape taxation and Trump wants to close the loopholes, his private tax documents are doubly irrelevant.

Silly Billy and the sore losers are selective in their demands for non-compulsory transparency. I don't recall that mutinous mob of motley miscreants calling for the release of Obama's college transcripts.

They are hypocrites motivated by hatred.

I agree, especially taxing the people who drive the economy -- the lower- and middle-class workers. Despite their insistence on calling the wealthy "job creators," Republicans got that wrong. It's the rest of us who spend and buy, and *that* is what enables the economy to grow and employers to have a reason to hire more workers. The wealthy tend to stash their extra cash and pass it along to their progeny. Notice how the (R)s want to get rid of the estate tax as well? Why's that?

I still can't figure out why we want to add 1.5 trillion to our debt

There is very little benefit for middle class in this tax reform. The bulk of it, once again, benefits the 1%

[h=2]Loser: The deficit[/h]Republicans used to consider themselves deficit hawks, but their plan will add at least $1.5 trillion to the federal debt over a decade. Many economists think that it will be more than this, because Republican tax-writers are using optimistic assumptions about economic growth when assessing their plan. If deficits continue to swell, it would depress economic growth and lawmakers would likely have to consider raising taxes or cutting spending to compensate as an aging population puts pressure on federal entitlement programs like Social Security and Medicare.

Why did it get so much worse under The Obama?

Because the changes since Reagan that are causing it were still in place; the Great Recession under Bush shifted trillions more to the rich; Obama helped a little when he let the Bush tax cuts for the top 2% expire, over Republican objections.
