Rep. Dan Goldman: Trump's "Big Beautiful Bill" is a Disaster for the Middle Class - Rep. Dan Goldman

[Rhiannon12866]

Tell me your values and I’ll ask you to show me your budget. Show me your budget and I’ll tell you what you value.

From Trump’s tax cuts for billionaires that increases the deficit by $3.8 TRILLION, to his FY26 Budget that slashes Social Security, health care, child care, public education, and more, to tariffs that disproportionately increase costs for the middle class, the GOP’s values support billionaires and hurt working Americans.

Don't let them fool you with lies. Their actions speak for themselves. - Rep. Dan Goldman - 05/23/2025.

1. The middle class is the group that pays for everything.

So let's screw them.

2. The rich really avoid their tax responsibilities to keep the government running.

1.) They allow the debt to run up higher and higher. But they make a killing twice. Little of their income is wages but listed as capital gains. Then they get massive taxbreaks each year and so do their companies.

2.) Then when there are tax shortfalls the deficts balloon. But that is okay,... the rich loan the money to the government which should have been the fairshare taxes they owed. The rich buy government bonds to finance the government deficits and then realize tax free income from the intrest payments for the government bonds.

So the rich pay very little into the system to keep the government running. They just sit back and wait for the money to show up at their door.

As said above in the previous post - the middle class gets slammed with the tax burden to keep the government up, running, and functional.

3. And big business relies on a stable US govt.

Law enforcement, roads, rule of law, courts, etc.

This is the country where they got rich.

But they don't want to pay one cent for it.
