That's not fair at all, Kendall- the first tax cut legislation did a number of great things:
1. It destroyed the budget surplus.
2. It put the economy right in the crapper, where it remains.
3. It preserved a bunch of rich folks' heredetary fortunes.
4. It preserved countless loopholes for businesses and corporations, so they pay little or no tax.
5. It annihilated a host of useful and worthwhile programs and services.
6. It cost TENS OF THOUSANDS of jobs (yeah, yeah, I know, government jobs don't count- public employees don't need to feed their families, pay the rent, send their kids to college, etc. & they're all a buncha lazy, usless sonsabitches anyway)
7. It screwed poor folks and especially screwed the middle class.
So, what's not to like? The coming one is more of the same. Enjoy!
