Less than a month after they passed it, Seattle’s city council voted to repeal the corporate head tax after facing legitimate pressure from companies like Starbucks and Amazon.
The tax would have forced companies that make “more than $20 million a year pay an annual $275 tax per employee.” The council predicted...
One would think the Democratic legislature of New Jersey would be eager to pass a tax hike on millionaires now that the state has a Democratic governor. After all, they passed the hike five times during the tenure of Republican Chris Christie even though they knew he would veto it.
Gov. Phil...

In addition to their multiple calls for greater gun control, Democrats have found another message they believe is a winner for the 2018 midterms. They want to repeal the GOP tax cuts. They can’t stand the idea of people being allowed to keep more of their own money.
New Jersey Governor Phil Murphy (D) has proposed his first budget, and it’s loaded with new taxes and tax policy that is intended to raise approximately $1.6 billion in new tax revenue.
The tax increases are being met with mixed reactions from New Jersey Democrats; some favor the proposals, some don’t think...

At a town hall event Tuesday, Nancy Pelosi continued her criticism of tax reform by trying to frame it as something which favors the wealthy. At one point she awkwardly read a quote from MLK which she had written down on a piece of paper.
Democrats promised the passage of tax reform would spell certain doom, but their absurd fear mongering was all for naught.
Seeing proof that Trump’s tax reform package positively impacted their bank accounts, the majority now support the legislation.
Democrats have done their best to downplay the significance of the recent tax reform bill. Nancy Pelosi even repeatedly referred to the benefits as crumbs. Unfortunately for them, millions of Americans are enjoying bonuses and higher pay.
Democrats have spent years trying to “Raise the Wage” for workers in entry-level and part-time jobs, to no avail.
Their approach was all wrong. Though they successfully installed minimum wage hikes in blue locals, the exact population they sought to help experienced layoffs, hour cuts, and even store closures as a result...
Just before Christmas, President Donald Trump signed the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act that has set America’s economy on a trajectory to prosperity and put wealth back in the hands of its citizens.
