Since you couldn't be bothered to do any research on your own. I did it for you.
You see Doc, when you have the greatest wealth inequality in American history, there really is no need for a tax plan to increase it. The professional studies conclusively demonstrate that this tax bill is a wealth transfer from the middle and lower classes to the extremely wealthy. Every PROFESSIONAL study I have seen is basically saying the same thing..... it is a wealth transfer thing and in no way helps the middle class.
The middle class paying more harms them financially. Expensive tax bills for gifted middle class college students harms them and America. Is this too complicated for you or are you trolling us?

This assumes that the tax breaks for the low/middle class won't be extended in 2025 and I highly doubt either party would allow that to happen.Since you couldn't be bothered to do any research on your own. I did it for you.

You have been shown CBO report that said even if you extend tax rate breaks the lower half of the population is still going to end up paying more than they did thanks to various deductions going away.This assumes that the tax breaks for the low/middle class won't be extended in 2025 and I highly doubt either party would allow that to happen.

Exactly...how is this going to harm the middle class? I must have missed that part during all your wailing and gnashing of teeth.
So in other words when the Republicans are saying their tax bill costs $1.4 trillion they are lying as now we're expanding the debt by $2-3 trillion for tax breaks while the economy is at full employment and even if middle class tax breaks don't expire the vast majority is still going to the ultra rich. Even smarter! Then when the next recession comes conservatives will be pointing to the national debt and screaming about how we have to cut back because our debt will doom us.
I am so depressed and angry. The pricks actually are going after college kids as well. The smartest kids in America working on cutting edge scientific research and they marked them off for extra taxes. I don't know if that will remain when all is said and done but it would not surprise me in the least.

Why do they fuck it up? Is it so the top .01% can buy up even more during a recession? Like full employment is the time to pay down the debt.
ACA is complete horseshit. The real solution is single payer.
I would say the simplest solution is the most likely. They genuinely believe that rich people pay too much in taxes and so decreasing that is a good thing. They also likely primarily associate with the rich and hear their perspective the most. Finally, people who play ball in the conservative movement are well taken care of by donors later through lobbying jobs, think tank positions, etc.
So basically they probably always thought making the rich richer was a good idea and now they have large financial incentives to do so.
so basically they are horrible human beings.
Some of them, sure. There’s a legitimate ideology that says taxation is fundamentally bad and we should do as little of it as possible and as equally as possible though. I imagine some of them genuinely believe this and I don’t hold it against them even though I find it kind of silly.
What I object to most is the craven dishonesty with which they pursue this objective. They know their ideology is unpopular and so the only way they can implement it is through lying. That’s why you get deficit hysteria when Democrats are in charge followed by huge deficit increasing tax cuts. It’s why they claim tax cuts for rich people will make poor people better off. It’s why they tried to rush their health bill and this bill through before anyone could analyze their effects and then when people did they just claimed those bad effects weren’t real.
They know people hate what they want to do but instead of admitting that they figure it’s best to trick the unwashed masses into it. The sheer contempt they have for us and their voters in particular is what I dislike by far the most and THAT is why they are horrible people.
I'm really hoping we, your friendly neighbours to the north, pass some new tax law to specifically loot you folks of graduate students. (We make them pay tuition, but what if we didn't?)
University Affairs - International student enrolment rises by 11 percent at Canada’s universities
Fall enrolment data are in for 2017, showing a two-percent rise in full-time undergraduate students in Canada, with variations by region, and a 10.7 percent surge nationwide in international students compared to the previous year. The data were collected through preliminary surveys by the Association of Atlantic Universities, the Bureau de coopération interuniversitaire, the Council of Ontario Universities and Universities Canada.
International student enrolment increased in all provinces except New Brunswick, which reported a 5.7 percent decrease. Increases ranged from two percent in Saskatchewan to nearly 13 percent in P.E.I. and Ontario; British Columbia had biggest gain – 15.6 percent – in international students compared to the previous year.
The boom in new international students in Canada signifies that “students around the globe are increasingly choosing the internationally recognized quality of a Canadian university education,” said Universities Canada president Paul Davidson, adding, “the benefits for Canada are tremendous.” (In both 2015 and 2016, international student enrolment increased year-over-year by seven percent.)
except they are willing to tax certain people more. Like liberals in affluent states.
That is so hilariously misguided. How many universities are you going to destroy the ability to do high-end research to get back at those meanies at Harvard and Stanford? Hundreds?Perhaps the universities will have to dip into their multi-billion dollar endowments and pay them a little bit more to compensate. It's not the end of the world....things have a way of working out.
sweet! lower taxes for me.
in the future we will expect you to not complain about being fiscally conservative.
I am fiscally conservative, why would I complain about that?

You are? 1.5 trillion in new debt from this deal.
