Most/many people aren’t even following the case or know much about it. I mentioned it at work the other day, and the group I was talking to didn’t know what I was talking about, or weren’t too familiar with it…The average Joe’s aren’t like the members on this board , they don’t follow every little “political” thing…lol

No ■■■■ …cuz this whole thingy goes against the leftist narratives. Ignorance is bliss.

Great catch…this administration is so dishonest it’s disgusting…

You do know this is bipartisan legislation.

Would not have passed if republicans didn’t step up the plate and deliver the win for biden.

Why do you guys keep calling it a win for Biden? I thought the Infrastructure Bill was supposed to be for the country and the American people.

Somehow I doubt it.

I’m just glad the bill passed. Much needed for the country.

Not really. You shouldn’t have had to have it pointed out to you

This is garbage. This heritage foundation piece is light on facts and heavy on hyperbole. The FACT that is ignored by just about everyone on the right is that the Trump/GOP tax cuts that are oh so praised by the right actually EXPIRE for we the people and the corporate tax cuts are permanent. Why don’t you folks out the blame where it should be? The fact that taxes are going up soon is not a Biden thing, it is once again, a TRUMP thing. Further, this talk about printing money and adding to inflation etc… where we’re you when this tax law was passed adding trillions of dollars to the debt and deficit? Again, selective ignoring of facts. Why do you all do this? Dems actually want to raise the SALT allowance which will reduce taxes for the middle class who pay more than 10k in combined property and state taxes. Where is the praise from the right on this??

My advice is to stop cheering on your team and being against the other team. Judge your opinions on facts and maybe your eyes will open to the real truth.

It is republicans/the right that spend like drunken sailors giving basically everything to the rich. The Dems tax and spend, which is how it is supposed to work. Tax and spend is not evil. Borrow and spend without ever a way to pay it back IS evil.

Then why don’t the Dems fix that and make those tax cuts permanent?

I see, you admit Trump and the Republicans screwed up and you want the Democrats to fix it. Got it.

Psst, Republicans offered to make the personal tax cuts permanent, even put forth a bill to do so. Guess who opposed it and didn’t vote for it? Oh and SALT middle class? Too funny it helps like over 90% rich people.

from The SALT tax deduction is a handout to the rich. It should be eliminated not expanded | Brookings

Lifting the cap on the SALT deduction would massively favor the rich, with most of the benefit going to the top one percent
Lifting the cap would in fact give almost three times as much, as a share of the cut, to the top one percent as the TCJA cuts did as a whole (of course the absolute amount is very much less)
Even with the cap, the SALT deduction remains pro-rich, with around three-quarters of the benefit going to families in the top fifth of the income distribution

SALT helps middle class people in jersey. It’s also helps the rich.

The poor. Nope.

How much will the tax increase be?

it will only be on the 400k per yr evil greedy rich

Yeah. The rest of us pay through inflation.

Yep. Likely to be in the 10 to 15 percent range.

They did not screw up. The tax cut bill would have never passed at all if it did not contain a sunset provision on the individual cuts. The corporate tax was “permanent” because to be an effective productivity incentive, it had to have a sense of stability. So now we have spend and tax Democrats looking to do away with that stability, while at the same time refusing to extend the individual tax cuts so they can blame that impending tax hike on Trump. Democrats have never met a tax they don’t love.

It’s kind of hard to cut taxes for people who don’t pay taxes.

Republicans were solely responsible for the sunset clause, they could have eliminated it but they didn’t care to. The tax cuts were meant for the rich donor class, not rank and file schlubs.
