Ugh, I really just can’t find enough bad things to say about Trump at this point. He’s just a disaster, and probably worse that any other politician I can name, lol. Ugh.
I suppose that people already know what I think of Trump’s proposal to fund the federal budget with a “gasoline tax” because of the corporate tax cuts and such that he’s trying to push through.
I’ll just repeat this, from the Part 13 Trump screed:
————————————————————————-
You know what corporate CEOs are going to do with the money they save on taxes, Trump? I know you already know, of course, since you’re one of them, but I’ll tell you anyways: they’re going to just pocket the savings and move on.
My earlier point about Jeff Bezos stands tall here. Bezos already has something like 90 billion dollars in the bank. If Bezos and the rest of the corporate CEOs that stand to benefit most from this move were actually going to use the money from the tax cuts to hire people, they would have already done it by now.
The United States is awash in plutocrats like Bezos (and Trump) who see any opportunity to save money solely as a chance to enrich themselves. The futures of their own companies and employees mean nothing to them.
I do not think that this move is going to solve anything. Rather, what’s going to happen is this: the oligarchs are just going to pocket the savings from the tax cuts. But then, who’s going to pick up the slack? If the federal budget is not going to go down, then who will pay the taxes needed to keep the government afloat?
Well, I can tell you that it’s not going to be a billionaire. Any of them.
It’s going to be the rest of us: the working classes that make up the actual tax base in this country, since neither the overclass nor the orcs in the protected “underclass” ever pay taxes.
————————————————————————-
Pretty much.
And the whole “Civil War” thing is just dumb, dumb, dumb. This might be Trump’s awkward attempt to connect with his base again after capitulating on literally everything.
Or, maybe he really just doesn’t know what he’s talking about.
*Shrugs*.
Maybe both, lol.
