Subject: Re: Wealthy Gain, Poor Lose From Tax Bill
Like Christianity but in reverse...
"Trumps Bill is the largest redistribution from poor to rich in a single bill in American history.
It's a play in three regressive parts:
1. Tax cuts for the rich.
2. Spending cuts on the poor.
3. Tariffs that hit low-income folks hardest.
Budget math isn't about arithmetic. Budgets are statements of values, and behind every number is a choice about who and what we value.
So as you evaluate the Republican budget bill, ask yourself: Does it give voice to your values?" ~Econ Professor, Justin Wolfers
