Wrong GOP tax cuts for the rich- echo from Virginia Pilot

"...individual tax cuts go away in seven years." David Murphy Virginia Beach.

Republicans don't deserve kudos - wrong on tax cuts for the rich:

An echo from The Virginia Pilot letter by Annette Thompson Markham, in Portsmouth, Virginia.

It's amazingly easy to find lots of opposition to the Republican tax cuts for the rich, a wrong minded reform bill. This "echo" is a re-blogged letter to the editor, published in The Virginia Pilot newspaper:

PORTSMOUTH, Va- The platitudes that Donald Trump and Republican members of Congress are bestowing on themselves for having advanced a (wrong minded*) tax “reform” bill defy logic and common sense.

Let’s recap: The Senate bill passed 51-49, by the smallest of margins, and was written and passed in extreme haste and secrecy. Who knows what else contributed to this so-called victory?

Most people don’t question the need for tax reform, but this bill is wrong and should be defeated. The issue needs to go back to the drawing board with serious consideration and input from all members of Congress.
