By the way, something else that annoys me right now. Trump just ran his mouth blaming previous administrations for a long overdue infrastructure bill that is badly needed and he promised about 10 months ago was imminent. This tax plan is so stupid. We need the infrastructure bill desperately so let's bigly reduce revenues so we can't pay for it. All so the wealthy and corps get money.

The current GOP line is that we can break even with the new tax plan and maybe even have a slight surplus which is absolute horse shite and they know it, but let's go with that.

Who really believes that they're gunna find a trillion dollars lying around after they go full chickenshit on welfare and medicare reform? Seriously does anyone really believe that after this abortion of a tax plan, that everyone hates, that the GOP is then going to reduce entitlements by a trillion dollars to pay for infrastructure? There has been some talk of using a mixture of private, and local government funding. Best let's not hold our breaths for that one.

That's why noone other than Trump is talking infrastructure other than a few Dems saying "get real". They're giving the trillion dollars necessary for infrastructure to the richest Americans apparently because that's what many of the richest Americans have paid them to do.

The worst part is that it's possible that a trillion dollar infrastructure plan could've been just the ticket to reduce unemployment to virtually zero and thereby making real headway in addressing wage growth. It sure would have a better chance than what they're planning now.
