Depending on what tax bracket you are and what kind of job you work, your taxes will either be taken out directly of your paycheck or you'll pay them at the end of the year. The money the truckers have to fork over is money that would have been paid in taxes regardless. However, the total amount paid under Trump's plan is lower. You just have to pay it all at once instead of having taken out.

And now he wants to give the rich another tax cut (on capital gains) after the first one failed. Bread and circuses is what this guy is all about.

I'm not a fan of Biden because I think his ideas are old and will not solve today's problems. Warren makes a lot of sense and is a fighter for the common American. Her Medicare for all would have to be scaled back. Right now she's my favorite. Castro has been pretty impressive, Booker less so. Steyer will shake things up but he's a one-trick pony--the economy. Most important thing is who can energize voters and get them to the polls. Winning the Senate is important if progressive legislation is to be passed.Hopefully some people will start waking up to the fact that trump is bankrupting the government and that Medicare and SS are in real danger if he is reelected. Not to mention the environment, worker's rights and more.

Yang is someone people are excited to talk about, and likely the only real hope for the Democrats to defeat Trump.
Personal exemptions were taken away.In 2017, you could take a $4,050 deduction for yourself, $4,050 deduction for your spouse, AND $4,050 deduction for any dependents. That added up if you had a big family.
So what youre saying is...a bunch of people who voted for the party that is gutting the hell out of welfare and social services, are planning to apply for the SAME services?
Democrats: "Climate Change is threatening the planet. It's an issue of survival!"*Jay Inslee runs on Climate Change platform*Democrats: "We're not backing him. He's a boring old white guy."
