But it does make for interesting conversation. It's pretty much close enough to call it now. Trump vs. Clinton. One is a professional lying politician. The other aspires to be a professional lying politician.(03-10-2016, 02:12 PM)Donovan Wrote: Blindgreed's supposed "detailed" tax cut was a great pile of horse shit when carefully read, as I'm sure most here didn't due to its tl;dr status. The cuts proposed for the poor and working class were ridiculous empty promises no one would be able to sustain, certainly not a country like ourswith a military-minded ruling class. And the reams of puffers on "closing certain loopholes" for corporations was glaringly vague in exactly which loopholes would actually be cut, or in detailing who would make up the trillions in lost revenue from what appear to be massive tax cuts for every single person.
So basically a great bullshit story by a prime bullshit artist.
If you have an hour, we could discuss the merits of Trump's tax plan over some genuine Trump steaks and then take a tour of Trump University. That would leave us approximately 59 extra minutes to play a game of Scrabble or something.
Trump's tax plan isn't at the top of my list either. Here is a good key points summary of the tax plan proposals submitted by each of the candidates: http://taxfoundation.org/comparing-2016-...-proposals
