Utopia Talk / Politics / Trump on Reagan Tax Cuts

Remember how Trump brags about his tax cuts being the greatest and bigger than Reagan's in the 80s that jump started the US economy. Of course he was living in a fantasy world when he touts this. However, Trump didn't really feel that Reagan's tax cuts were all that great. Instead it was a "disaster" and caused a "depression."

"On November 22, 1991 Donald Trump testified before Congressional Committee and called the Reagan 1986 Tax Reform Act a "catastrophe."

His major complaints were the elimination of tax loopholes for syndication and junk bonds as well as the reduction in top earner tax brackets.

He suggested taxes should be substantially increased for $200,000 income earners, specifically citing Doctors and Dentists who make $200,000 to $300,000, in order to force them (he calls incentive) to invest in real estate in order to get a reduction in taxes. "

Only a Bernie supporter would have missed that one. It is so obvious.

I bet if cold rod was making a speech some girls would take his microphone away from him too.

Ayn Rand


- Russian-born writer -- and inventor of Objectivism, a simplistic philosophy beloved by 15-year-old social outcasts everywhere!

- Believed self-interest to be all good -- and altruism to be evil!

- Found the idea of volunteering to help the less fortunate to be offensive!

- Elevated a rapist to hero status in her novel The Fountainhead!

- Provided a pseudo-intellectual justification for narcissism and selfishness!

- Never really addressed what would happen to those who don't "make it" in her ideal, selfish society; presumably, they would be sent somewhere where they could starve in private!

- Favorite of CEOs, bankers, and others with excessively favorable opinions of themselves!

- Current acolytes include deep thinkers like TV "journalist" John Stossel -- and Rush drummer Neil Peart!

- Mentor to former Federal Reserve chairman (and fellow idiot) Alan Greenspan!

- Admired by anti-tax, anti-regulation free marketeers like Newt Gingrich, Ronald Reagan, Tom DeLay, Ann Coulter, and Rush Limbaugh!

- Rather than "going Galt" and refusing to participate in society, her followers tend to whine about government -- while continuing to drive on government-built and -maintained highways, use government-run postal services, and enjoy government-run police and fire protection!

- Some Randians even consider Somalia to be an ideal small-government nation!

- Idiot!

Your roids must be on fire after that.

If you came up with all of that, which I sincerely doubt, you know nothing of her philosophy.

You are just another socialist with your hand out.

Just asking...

Not only is he a hypocrite given his policies today, his stances back then were still based on selfishness and stupidity.

"specifically citing Doctors and Dentists who make $200,000 to $300,000, in order to force them (he calls incentive) to invest in real estate in order to get a reduction in taxes."

Seriously, what the fuck kind of logic is this?
