    Default It took till December....

    It took until December but the Trump Congress actually accomplished a goal. I think it is harmful and will cause additional income disparity, but they did it, finally !

    Lol they accomplished the largest tax reform since Reagan in Trump's first year, that is unprecedented, IIRC Reagan didn't get tax reform until his 2nd term, and don't forget this bill effectively repealed the ACA as well. Furthermore; the economy is not a zero sum game.

    The zero sum game mentality is the only way the lefties can convince themselves it's wrong. When they can convince people that the only reason they're unsuccessful in life is because someone else caused it, they have a permanent voter on their side. It's easy for the left to convince those that don't want to or can't do better that it's not their fault.

    Why do you see 80% of Americans being able to keep more of their money as "harmful"?

    Ya the idea that the government stealing less from others takes money out of my pocket is absurd. And as to my second point I was wrong it wasn't Reagan's 2nd year it was his 2nd term, Trump is killing it.

    Jarod's adheres to the zero sum game mentality. He believe income disparity is a result of one group of people taking advantage of another group. He believes the haves are the cause of the have nots not having anything. He believe income disparity is about income and the only way to solve the problem is to take from those that have more and simply hand it to those that have less.

    Too many think that income disparity is about income alone. While the result may show up in income disparity, the cause has little to do with income and more to do with the person. It's just easier for those that follow the zero sum game mentality to convince those who cause their own problems that it's not their fault.

    Many lefties have called the new plan a heist. I don't know how you can call returning the money to it's rightful owners a heist.

    The problem is that there are those in power that also believe that drivel and as long as those that support them believe it, they'll continue to get elected.
