It would be awesome if you could actually provide links to support all of those claims, especially tying them directly to the tax cuts

Keep in mind that unemployment has been dropping for 8+ years so you'll need to actually provide data on the marginal gain associated with the tax cut

Same goes for the claims about wage growth and tax revenue

I'm looking forward to reading that data
I don't have to tie them directly to tax cuts.  Tax revenue is up in FY 2018.    That's just a fact.  It's also projected to be 110 billion more in FY 2019.

you can find a lot of info online refuting the fact that nominal tax revenue has gone up from baseline (prior to tax cuts)

If you actually bother to read these links and want to discuss it let me know
I'm not going to cut and paste a wall of text

with federal taxes... sometimes you win, sometimes you use.

 just play hard and hustle and earn a good dollar is all you can do.

What's funny is that many of us spend more money on the deductions (such as mortgage interest), than we save on our tax bill.

But the point of tax cuts isn't to drive tax revenue higher.    When politicians talk about tax cuts "paying for themselves", they mean tax revenue won't being taking a hit and it's not.  It's continuing to grow.  Spending cuts need to come next.

As of March 29, total tax refunds were about $6 billion lower than over the same period in 2018

In short, living in NJ, despite the lower tax rate and higher child tax credits, I lost almost $30000 in deductions ($8000 in SALT, $22000 in exemptions - Line 42 from 2017 1040 form).. It resulted in a tax increase of $5000 over 2017.

Fortunately I got solar panels in 2018 and I got a nice credit that offset the tax balance and I still got a refund.

I also lowered my exemptions on my W4 so I can be more reasy for 2019 returns.

Can't help but notice that the higher the income bracket the more likely it is that folks believe they got a tax cut according to the article you linked.

Libbies want muzzies and others to get handouts non-stop, so people who work have to pay.

Pretty obvious problem.

80% of Americans got a tax cut. Anyone who can't understand this is hopelessly dumb. Has nothing to do with your tax return.

OK , I just checked my pay stubs from 2017 and 2018 , in 2018 I was getting $50 more per pay check (40/hours) than I did in 2017 ,
$50x 52 = $ 2600

$2600 + $2500 refund = $5100

2017 refund = $6700

$6700 - $5100 = $1600

So this year I get $1600 less than I did in 2018















80% of Americans paid less taxes under Trumps bill. Google it...

Where is my middle class  tax cut  ???
