look people, if you get back 1000 this year you will double that next year unless you make over 75000.  that is money that we earned, but if you don't want it you can give it to me.  even if businesses get a break, your still getting more back.  more taxes = BAD  less taxes=GOOD .   GET IT!

I do not know everything about the tax cuts but i would think that people whom make $500,000 up should pay more tax

so does that mean if I get 7,000 this  year does that mean I will get back 14,000 next year because that would sure be great.

Basically because liberals have managed to swindle some people for decades into believing that any time a Republican offers you a tax cut, it's only going to benefit "the wealthiest among us".

It's more like the conservatives must think something is good because the other "side" is against it.  Have you actually read the proposed plan? The plan is really only beneficial to corporations and the wealthy in the long run. The biggest cuts are for the top income bracket and businesses. It's eliminating personal exemption deductions, taxing graduate students' income, making the child care credit too high for people to utilize and temporarily lowering the tax rate for low and middle class .  It doubles the estate tax deduction and is lowering the corporate tax rate to the lowest it would be since 1939. So yes its actually mainly beneficial to the wealthiest and will actually add a trillion to the deficit

I can't understand why people protest against getting more of their money back.  Unless they don't want to work.

Well most people don't want to work. But the issue is the dumocrats are going to go against anything Trump or the Republicans want to do.  And they are jealous because people who make more money will get a bigger tax cut. It's like the idiots who think people who are rich aka have more money should pay more taxes. NO. You should pay a flat rate. x percent of your income.  They will pay more any way but should not have to pay a higher percentage.  This world doesn't owe you anything.  And the freebies need to stop altogether.  Work or do without.

The problem with crying "The rich get the biggest tax cut" is- yeah, no kidding- because the rich pay the most taxes. So obviously, whoever is paying the most is gonna benefit the most. But the Libs work their audience to believe they're sticking it to "the man" by denouncing tax cuts, when all it really does is keep tax cuts from all parties.

The middle class actually pays the most in taxes comparably.  There is nothing wrong with tax cuts. The issue is the current tax reform plan isn't equally beneficial to all. Maybe if I only paid attention to conservative news sources and didn't actually read things for myself I would be under the illusion that its beneficial for the majority and not the minority.  The government is suppose to be working for the benefit of the country as a whole and not just those that give big donations to them.

Of course everyone wants a tax cut because the government is robbing us dry.

   Taxes are everywhere you go.
    Taxes, taxes and more taxes.
    Who does like tax breaks or cuts?

Most middle class taxpayers receive a tax cut with the bill. That's not from any news source, that's from actually reading the bill. This isn't Armageddon.
