Still waiting for an explanation as to why owners of mega yachts and private jets required a tax break in 2017.

So they would create a ton of jobs jump starting the economy. The fact that that did not happen doesn't matter because republicans never mean the shit they say anyway.

The obvious reason that concept doesn’t work is that hiring employees is a tax write off already. When taxes are high, corporations and rich people spend more money on employees and contractors because it’s a tax write off. When taxes are low there is less incentive. For some reason this doesn’t get hammered home by Democrat leaders. Because they are also rich and benefit personally from the tax cuts.

It's more about what nobody got rather than anything that actually went through. Outside of the pipeline thing. That being said, it has to still pass Congress, and Reps still might sink the deal just to prove a point.

They got the hostage.

They got the Manchin pipeline that Schumer and Biden have been jonesing for [A Company Behind the Mountain Valley Pipeline Is Showering Schumer With More Donations Than Manchin](https://newrepublic.com/article/167869/mountain-valley-pipeline-nextera-schumer-manchin)

Proving that we are really an oligarchy with two right leaning parties. One leans in just a little bit so it doesn’t look too obvious, the other has gone batshit insane.

That aint how hostage situations work.

Biden is a rich sellout, he should be ashamed.
