Someone keeps deleting my substantive responses to CO. Hoosier's bullshit. I'll repeat (as best I can) what I said in the last deleted post.
_______________________________________________
You're posting bullshit again. Let me explain.
The link in your first sentence refutes the claim that sentence makes. It's a Tax Policy Center analysis that directly supports what I say and contradicts your bogus claim:
The Tax Policy Center has released distributional estimates of this legislation. We find the following:
- Compared to current law, taxes would fall for all income groups on average in 2018, increasing overall average after-tax income by 2.2 percent. In general, tax cuts as a percentage of after-tax income would be larger for higher-income groups, with the largest cuts as a share of income going to taxpayers in the 95th to 99th percentiles of the income distribution.
- The pattern of tax changes across income groups would be similar in 2025 (the last year before nearly all the individual provisions sunset) although the magnitude of average tax decreases would be slightly smaller for most income groups.
- In 2027, the overall tax reduction would be just 0.2 percent of after-tax income. On average, relative to current law, low- and middle-income taxpayers would see little change and taxpayers in the top 1 percent would receive an average tax cut of 0.9 percent of after-tax income.
- Some taxpayers would pay more in taxes under the proposal in 2018 and 2025 than under current law: about 5 percent of taxpayers in 2018 and 9 percent in 2025. In 2027, however, taxes would increase for 53 percent of taxpayers compared with current law.
So, ordinary people get a small temporary tax cut, wealthy people get a large permanent tax cut, and income inequality increases -- just as I said.
Noting that you'd inexplicably linked a TPC report for the exact opposite of what it says, I wondered where you conjured up the numeric claims in the second two sentences. They aren't in the TPC report -- and can't even be arithmetically derived from it -- so I knew they came from somewhere else.
So I Googled your claim, which led me straight to
this piece of shit from Townhall.com. It claims to rebut the TPC analysis, but it doesn't even engage that analysis. Instead,
it lies about what the TPC report says. Wingnuts can't even be bothered to pony up phony analytics, so they just flat lie about what reputable organizations say. And that, of course, is good enough for CO. Hoosier.
I don't know what motivates you to post this bullshit. You must have seen the Townhall.com piece, which lied about the TPC report, then to avoid acknowledging your shitty source, you linked the TPC report instead -- oblivious that it explodes your argument. In any event, having cleared out all that bullshit from just three sentences of your post, I decided that the rest of it
wasn't worth the effort.
