Acosta is a complete Sociopath. He might get axed if CNN truly wants a cleanse.
Well done and on point! 🤣
Did you know Democrats created the law that allowed taxing of SS benefits?You know who started using SS funds to pay for other things? Republicans. So they could cut taxes.
I doubt you even knew that.
I own several businesses, In fact I now own businesses that own businesses, So I get how it works. But thanks for that insight,
Ronald Reagan signed that provision into law. He was a Republican.Did you know Democrats created the law that allowed taxing of SS benefits?
Three years of summer school English classes never took. Luckily spelling has very little to do with the services I provide or the jobs I have created.It's a miracle you can spell the word "business." But, you are welcome.
Thank God.Three years of summer school English classes never took. Luckily spelling has very little to do with the services I provide or the jobs I have created.
Tariffs will not cause inflation. We had tariffs under Trump before. Inflation was 1.4%. Under Biden we had no tariffs and inflation exploded up to nearly 10%.
Doing away with the individual income tax system and the IRS would be a God send to the American people. Even before Biden added $85 billion to the department we were spending about $20 billion on the IRS just to administer this incredibly complex and inefficient system. What most people don't realize that the actual tax they pay is just a fraction of what it costs them. The enormous booking costs for businesses along with accountants, lawyers, etc costs Americans billions of $ every year. I'm semi retired and only have a very few clients left but I get a letter from the IRS for at least one of them every month. Its almost always an IRS error but I have to deal with it for the client. Every time I have to deal with an issue and respond to the IRS it costs my clients money. Even if there was an inflationary aspect to tariffs (which there won't be), it would be a fraction of what we would save from the income tax system.
He's saying "get over it" because he knows that the net effective of tariffs is coming to be a net positive for Americans.
Taxes will be lower (or even gone) because of these tariffs.
This is another example of where a Humanities Degree really works against you.
But he didn't say that because what you're saying isn't true. Income taxes are not going to be eliminated, especially not for middle class Americans.
The tariffs are going to be used to claim they're offsetting the tax cuts for the richest Americans, but they won't do that. The tax cuts will just lead to more national debt and more need to print more money. Ultimately, hurting middle class Americans even more.
Ronald Reagan signed that provision into law. He was a Republican.
Appointed by Ronald Reagan, Co-chair Alan Greenspan (A Republican), and Co-chair Robert Beck (A Republican) the National Commission on Social Security Reform Committee was empaneled to investigate the long-run solvency of Social Security. The 1983 Amendments to the SSA were based on the NCSSR's Final Report.
The NCSSR recommended an income tax on the Social Security benefits.
The last major overhaul of Social Security occurred under President Ronald Reagan with the passage of the Amendments of 1983. The two biggest changes included the introduction of the taxation of benefits for those recipients earning over select income thresholds and, secondly, the gradual increase of the full retirement age from 65 to 67 between 1983 and 2022. These changes were designed to bring in additional revenue (up to half of a person's or couple's benefits were subject to federal income tax), as well as limit lifetime benefit payouts to future generations.
What is this middle class you speak of?But he didn't say that because what you're saying isn't true. Income taxes are not going to be eliminated, especially not for middle class Americans.

Why do you believe this?
Why do you think you know best?
Many very intelligent people have thought about this for awhile now.
There's been an argument forever that what we pay into the system is like pissing in the ocean versus how our country actually generates revenue.
Why do you let things play out before you start criticizing because you've had your way for a long time and it sucked.
We're deeply in debt, and outside of dingbat Harris's 4 mansions, our infrastructure is crumbling.
What is this middle class you speak of?
Misinformation, racism, climate deniers, nazi’s,We haven't had "my way" (taxing the amount needed to pay our expenses) since Ronald Reagan came along and cut taxes and expanded the national debt.
There is no reason to let "your way" play out because everyone who is being honest already knows how it will play out. The point is, you're just falling for the misinformation again. "Your way" is only going to make life worse for the majority of Americans.
There is no middle class. Your either wealthy or poor teach. And really is that the best name calling you can do tonight? I love it when you act like a child. Name calling is so telling and hilarious and the liberals calling card.True. You guys have done your best to eliminate the middle class.
I was just trying to be kind and not make you feel like you were poor.
Btw did your dei buddies help you pack up today? Did you make the 5:00 deadline?True. You guys have done your best to eliminate the middle class.

It’s even better when you use words having no clue what they mean.How is acknowledging that you fall into the poor category name calling?
Agree. Ignore goes into effect tonight. Good call.Note To Self: You're an idiot for talking to this guy about any of this. It's got to be a defect in your programming and is massively unproductive. Tomorrow is a new day. No more mind numbing conversation with someone who isn't concerned at all with anything but trolling.

Billionaires and millionaires thank you for your sympathy and empathy.
It's folks like you that are their biggest supporters, defenders, and allow them to control government the way they do.
True. You guys have done your best to eliminate the middle class.
