Well…if you’ve been coming here for a while, you probably read a post that I did when the repub tax scam was passed where I predicted that the giveaway to the rich and corporations would raise taxes on the middle class to pay for it…and you heard McConnell and the rest of the repubs howl whenever anyone called them out on it…so, today…a new study just came out that said…guess what? That the majority of Americans saw their taxes go up after the passage of the law…and with the withholding shenanigans that the repubs did to snow people into thinking they were getting a tax cut, most returns are down this year and over 20% of the people filing actually owe more money to the IRS. Let’s get this straight, just like was done here in Michigan when they started taxing pensions, and then gave tax cuts to corporations and the rich to “create jobs”…it is the same thing as me writing a check to a CEO for a thousand bucks…the people who owe money this year are writing a check to a corporation or one of the 1% so they can buy another summer home or their 43rd car….and the repubs continue to lie about that scam every day…and the people who voted for them are still so damn dumb they still support them even after writing the checks….oh, and one last thing…after the tax scam, over 65 of the largest corporations in America didn’t pay a damn dime in taxes….that is what the repub party is all about…a reverse Robin Hood…robbing the poor to give to the rich….
