No, the real threat is an enormous tax - cut for the wealthy

Posted: Feb 13th, 2018 - 7:47 am In Reply to: Right now entitlements are close to 60%. What happens when they - reach 80 or 90%? That a real threat.

while cutting programs for the poor and middle class. The moment of truth for what this administration is all about is coming out and unfortunately we will be the losers. Massive increase in defense spending while restructuring (republican word for cutting your benefits) SS, Medicaid and Medicare is what they are planning on doing. I hope when/if he passes his infrastructure plan you enjoy what this does to your state and local taxes that will add to you losing SS, Medicaid and Medicare benefits. He is proposing a 1.5 trillion dollar infrastructure plan but only $200 billion of that will be federal funds, the rest is reliant upon states so how do you think states will pay for that. They will increase taxes. I guess that will force everybody into the military and we can march around showing off our bombs just like they do in North Korea. The rest of us will be standing in food lines to get a loaf of stale bread to feed our families.

I guess this is called winning in the eyes of some though.
