Tax plan passes Senate

Wallethub lists their experts as well as their methodology. You would know that if you read it. Business Insider reported on what Wallethub was saying.

Also, Wallethub and Pew do not disagree. All Pew was saying is the majority of payments to the states is for social security and Medicare/Medicaid. Wallethub merely did some rankings.

Your premise seemed to then be that since SS/Medicare/Medicaid are over half of payments the “taker” states are really just collecting SS benefits. But I showed that cannot be the whole thing because the statistics don’t bear out your hypothesis.

But ad hominem attacks are all you got I guess so best stick with what you know.

So, if you totally win this point, will that make this tax bill all kosher and hunky-dory?

From what I’ve heard, state and local taxes will no longer be allowable deductions in the Free-Money-For-The-Rich tax plan. So people in donor states, which tend to have the highest state and local taxes, will have to pay more to the federal government and thus the donations from those states will increase.

Slate headline: Senate Republicans Made a $289 Billion Mistake in the Handwritten Tax Bill They Passed at 2 a.m. Go Figure.

Basically, they messed up the corporate AMT, and it probably means that the House can’t/won’t just accept the Senate version, so it will have to go to committee and then be passed by both chambers again.

No Constitutional authority for it.

Yeah, they gave me six experts who agreed with my points, and a free credit report too!

Pew would be so much better if they offered a 30 day free trial of herbal Viagra.

The Supreme Court disagrees with you.

Good thing they do not disagree then.

You mean the one full of activist judges? [cough] Hobby Lobby [/cough]
[gag]Citizens United [/gag]

All the more reason for conservatives to think the Supreme Court got it right.

We certainly do not have to agree with them but we do have to abide by them whether we like it or not.

You wouldn’t know it by reactions from the likes of Moore and Sen. Cruz.
