If Biden said, "I will not change any existing gun laws or add or takeaway from them."
And he convinced you he meant it; would you vote for him?
Trump cut taxes for the rich, some of whom save $10s of thousands a year. The tax loss has to be made up somewhere so states and cities raise taxes.
Trump shifted the tax burden from the backs of the rich onto the backs of the poor.
A working man voting for Trump doesn't make sense.
Here's the results of tax cuts for the rich.
Taxes history
Democrats rant on the rich paying their "fair share". What is "fair share"? Nobody on he left ever says.
Maybe a look at history will help clear up who is paying the bulk of taxes in America.
In the 1920's the highest tax rate was cut from 73% to 24 %, this was declared a tax break for he rich. The combined top marginal normal and surtax rate fell from 73 percent to 58 percent in 1922, and then to 50 percent in 1923 (income over $200,000). In 1924, the top tax rate fell to 46 percent (income over $500,000). The top rate was just 25 percent (income over $100,000) from 1925 to 1928, and then fell to 24 percent in 1929. The outcome: When the rich,(people making over $100,000 or the equivalent to a couple of million today), paid 73% income tax rate they paid 30% of the total federal tax. After the tax cuts for the rich, the rich were actually paying 65% of the federal taxes. those people making $5,000 and less were paying 15% of the federal tax prior to the tax cut after it they were paying 0.0025%, one quarter of one percent. The share of true millionaires of that time went from 4% to 19% afterwards.
So the myth of cutting taxes benefiting the rich is really just a political ploy by the liberals.
Heres the most recent numbers. This is based on total portion of the tax bill paid compared to total amount of income earned. According to the 2017 returns, which is the most complete data breakdown (done 2020) of taxes paid here are the numbers.
These numbers show the percentage of the total federal tax paid compared to the total portion of income earned in the U.S.
Top 1% paid 38.5% of taxes on 21% of total income (top 1% paid 38.5% of all taxes while earning 21% of all income)
Folks should bother to look up the facts before falling into the same old democrat/liberal claims. The truth is investment and job creation is the overall result of tax cuts and overall tax revenues rise.
Top 5 to 1% paid 20.7% of taxes on 15.5% of total income
Top 10 to 5% paid 10.9% of all taxes on 11.2% of all income
Top 25 to 10% paid 16% of all taxes on 21.4% of all income
Top 50 to 25% paid 10.8% of all taxes on 19.6% of all income
Bottom 50% paid 3.1% of the taxes on 11.3% of total earnings
