better be called ButtHoleCat as you are extremely narrow minded and short sighted:

" The most recent tax cut, in 2017, will cost $1.9 trillion over ten years, but it boosted growth only slightly, if at all, while shifting the distribution of income toward the wealthy and reducing the number of people with health insurance.
Look abroad, and it becomes obvious that the United States has more of a revenue problem than an entitlement problem. U.S. spending on social programs ranks among the lowest in 35 advanced economies, yet the country has the highest deficit relative to its GDP in the group. That is because the United States brings in the fifth-lowest total revenue as a share of GDP among those 35 countries."

Decided to humor you one more time.....to see if you will finally concede that Trump did lower my taxes.

2017 tax/AGI=4.6%
2018 tax/AGI=3.8%


I wish. I live in CA and was wiped out by SALT limits. I've adjusted these rates by adding back in the tax I saved last year making an early property tax payment.

2017 tax/AGI = 11.95%
2018 tax/AGI = 13.58%
