I spoke directly with my congressman's office today...
to the one who is supposed to be the 'go to' guy for
all things tax reform. The guy was totally clueless.
It was obvious he didn't care what my opinion was
and even when I convinced him I knew the facts,
he kept saying... "but there will be other things
in the final bill that will "fix" all that." Really ??
I told him if indeed there was something in the
GOP's bag of tricks that would convince average
Americans to support tax increases for themselves
so the rich elite can get tax breaks... they'd better
release that info now, before it's too late. Then,
just like "Lying Ted" during the CNN tax debate,
the guy had the nerve to tell me that the GOP's
proposed standard deductions $12,000/$24,000
were "double" the current standard deductions...
which is a BOLDFACE LIE !! Thanks to that very
enlightening conversation, I finally realized the GOP
is not suffering from lack of information, it's suffering
from insanity.
