Or by cutting waste. Why isn't that a possibility, Pete?
"And it certainly made most Americans poorer. While 2/3 of the corporate tax cut may have gone to U.S. residents, 84 percent of stocks are held by the wealthiest 10 percent of the population. Everyone else will see hardly any benefit."
Again, demonstrably false bullsh*t. My taxes went down by $200 a month.
The article is desperately trying to paint the cut, as something that benefitted the wealthy, and did nothing for everyone else. It's not true, it's not close to being true.
CBS (not a conservative outlet) looked at 3 families in 3 different parts of the country. Here is the impact of the tax cut.

Based on prior history our government does not cut waste.
Unless you think the current funding situation will continue indefinitely it will never happen.
Your taxes withheld or owed went down?
Have you done your taxes yet?
