Trump looking at possible tax cuts amid economic jitters
The trade policies of this administration, of "Tariff Man", have caused global economic activity to slow. They have caused US economic activity to slow.
Trump doesn't know what he is doing and none of the people around him are qualified for the jobs they hold. So we have lousy policy. Instead of having policies that foster economic growth, we have policies that retard economic growth.
Instead of coming up with solutions that will remove the barriers to growth, we come up with the bullshit listed above.
Tax cuts on capital gains. How many times has Trump floated this idea in the past 2.5 years? What a dumb idea. It's a GREAT idea if you are in the top 10%. It is and idea that is pretty much worthless for everyone else.
A payroll tax cut didn't do anything when Obama tried it. It is too small to make any difference in the lives or spending habits of average folks.
The boost the economy needs now is a facing saving deal with China...a removal of the tariffs and a return to negotiations where they belong--behind closed doors--not on freaking twitter.
If you are going to do a middle class targeted tax cut, then do a one time refund or provide incentives for purchases.
