Up On Banker’s Hill
They’re partying in rich man’s land for Christmas.
It’s always absolutely blown my mind that the rich have persuaded the middle to blame the poor for money problems.
83% of the tax cut is going to the top 1% of the population.
That’s not me saying that. It’s the experts sharing their review of the bill.
“The Dow is setting records!” Donald Trump
“We need to pass this cut to help the stagnant economy,” also Donald Trump.
Which is it?
If the rich are already breaking records. If corporate profits are at an all-time high...
...why?
Why are they getting massive amounts of money?
There are a number of people who voted on the bill who stand to make millions off the passage of the bill.
Rich people getting richer.
You’ll hear plenty of that...
...you’ll even hear people who will really suffer because of this...
....defend it.
I went to a calculator that they had set up for this. I put in my info and it showed that for the next 5 or 6 years I will get a small reduction in my taxes.
And then I’ll pay more, while the deductions for the millionaires and billionaires remain.
Then they’ll chase social security.
“Fiscal responsibility!” Ryan will exclaim. As they finish that one off they’ll talk about the deficit.
The same deficit that they just guaranteed by raiding the treasury.
You know who they won’t talk about for Christmas?
The people who will suffer.
13 million will lose healthcare.
Wages will remain stagnant ‘cause not a dime will trickle down.
That’s a pipe dream.
It will all be spent on bonuses and cranking up the stocks.
We have never seen Trump’s taxes.
We won’t see them now.
‘Cause he just profited in a bigly, bigly way.
“What do you have to lose?” Trump asked poor people on the campaign trail.
Plenty.
Apple will get a $47 billion break.
Goldman Sachs will get about a trillion dollar break.
Thank God he fought for the little guy, huh?
The champagne is flowing up on Banker’s Hill.
Congrats to the oppressed billionaires out there!
I hear your private jet fuel is now a write-off.
Good luck America.
