Do you have any other news sources than Fox?
Not that I diss their business crew, but I'd just like to read other sources for a different opiniin. I know the a British publication said it doesn't like his plan either, but they're closer in thinking to Fox business news.
It's interesting how we put $2 trillion dollars on the credit card for "tax cuts" that benefited the wealthy and no one on the right blinked.
Helping the average American is outrageous though.
I remember when Clinton reversed the Reagan tax cuts and raised the taxes slightly of the top 1%. They said it was soaking the rich and it would ruin the American Economy.
But the opposite held true. The US afterward enjoyed it's most successful economic expansion and actually recorded budgetary surpluses never seen since and possibly never again.
Still think the US could increase taxes on the ultra rich yet invoke the Buffet rule & leave those alone making $1 million or less.
I've seen videos of America's richest men like Bill Gates, Warren Buffet & Ray Dalio who've actually begged the American government to raise their taxes while leaving 99% of the population alone.
They have too much money, they know it and I think it bothers them and their conscience.
I don't know if it bother's their conscience as much as they know they cannot continue to reap the profits they have if Americans can't afford to consume at the rates they have for decades. Also, at some time us natives will get restless. In their minds I bet they know it's all avoidable.
