Primer on matters of concern about the Bill... Clears misunderstandings.(Short!)

Repubs say we need to keep taxes low, to stimulate the economy, benefit the people.
Dems say we are screwing the middle class.

Remember, this IS AN INCOME TAX CUT. It benefits the People WHO PAY INCOME TAXES. About 40% of the households today do NOT pay Fed income taxes. They pay other taxes, but not fed income taxes. It is VERY difficult to design a tax code that Benefits-People-Who-Do -Not-Pay-Income taxes. Really.

Trump has tried, with no tax on tips or overtime, to benefit the middle class. You say the Bill helps the rich, but we are helping the taxpayers, whose monies go to entitlement programs, etc.
On the other side of the equation, it does not do a great deal about govt spending.
Two reasons: You cannot attack discretionary spending. can't happen in a reconciliation Bill.
So, all govt can do is restrict entitlement spending, so Trump wants to reduce Medicaid spending, and one way is to NOT ALLOW PEOPLE WHO ARE NOT ELIGIBLE (whew..) TO RECEIVE MEDICAID! This is not arguable. My neighbor cannot raid my refrigerator, either.

I hope this has been helpful.. Again, if you know someone who does not pay federal imcome tax,,,,,,,well, they have nothing to say, do they............
