    The tax bill was not intended to redistribute wealth.

    The tax bill is pretty good and supported by a majority of Americans.

    Where our outrage needs to be directed is at government spending. We are getting to O level $1T deficits again.

    Perhaps you missed my point.

    When a tax is cut, the people who paid the tax get the benefit.

    Now, if as you seem to want, the cuts go to the people in society who pay little taxes- that is not a tax cut. That is redistribution of wealth.

    Did this explanation help? Yes or no?

    And it will work. The Dems voted against tax cuts for the middle class. Try selling that one.
    Liberals are a clear and present danger to our nation
    Pick your enemies carefully.
