Under the proposed 2-tier tax system with 15% for incomes up to $168,000 and 30% for incomes above, someone earning just above the poverty line at $15,000 would see their tax increase from $1,580 to $2,250, a $670 rise.

Around the world that number seems to be 14%-19%(keep in mind corporate taxes are paid and then income taxes are paid by people working at the corporations...so money created by that corporation is basically being taxed multiple times). Trump dropped taxes on corporations around 8%(gains)...corporations brought around $3.4 trillion back into the country b/c of that(that's documented, you can look it up), when they did that money was taxed at the lower rate(that brought in more tax revenue than had he not lowered taxes, again look it up).

So all that new equipment you bought had to be built by someone, so you've helped fund jobs elsewhere, then you've created a job yourself...and you bring in more money next year(and pay taxes on that extra money you made...so you are probably paying as much in taxes that you were the year before b/c you are making more money)....and you grow and hire more people....then more money next year and hiring more people...and on and on.

Nobody is saying pay 0 taxes, the top 1% already pay like 40% of all tax revenue. If you can bring the manufacturing sector back strong to America you could get millions of Americans off of Govt assistance programs, that would save hundreds of billions of dollars a year in tax dollars...so even if you cut the top 1% from 40% to 35% of all taxes it would not negatively impact the lower classes b/c they aren't depending on that tax payer funded Govt assistance, they would be supporting themselves with good paying jobs.

I'm not a money or tax expert at all, and maybe I'm not understanding this correctly, but wouldn't this be awful for the economy? Wouldn't a consumption tax discourage spending?
Same way wealth taxes discourage the accumulation of wealth, high income taxes discourage the chasing of higher incomes... People need to acknowledge that taxes need to go down and government needs to downsize. That's the only solution.
Low income folks can say good bye to their “7-15k “earned income “ tax credit they get for the children they claim on their annual taxes. Im sure his tax laws would do away with those fat checks that help to stimulate the growth of the economy each tax season

He says "Its hard to know how this will impact low income people"...if there is a consumption based federal income tax, its pretty well accepted knowledge that consumption based taxes disporaportionately affect lower income populations...
Sounds like they are wanting to raise your taxes. They are wanting to a flat tax + a consumption tax. The absolute best way to tax would be a national sales tax. No more income taxes. No more filing income tax. When you go out and buy things you then pay the tax. The only thing the IRS would have to do is monitor businesses to make sure the taxes were collected. No more bothering citizens with the tax code. The more you consume the more tax you would pay.
@@emilyfeagin2673 That’s what they are proposing with a consumption tax only they want to add a flat tax to it. If you want to help low income earners you do the national sales tax but you exempt food, housing and medical from taxes. That helps us all but it helps lower income a lot.
So based on the single federal income bracket, if you make less than 47k that's a tax increase, but over 47k up to 168k, it's a tax decrease. Then if you make more than 168k up to 192k, it's a tax decrease, then it's pretty much slightly less. Married, it's a tax increase until you make 95k, then it's a decrease up to 383k.
Not really, a flat tax comes with no deductions and no loopholes. Like the Democrats always say people should pay their fair share. With a flat tax the more you make the more you pay with no way of getting out of any of it.
@joshuawilliams2310 if you do the calculations the tax burden shifts to those with lower income. For example Under the proposed 2-tier tax system with 15% for incomes up to $168,000 and 30% for incomes above, someone earning just above the poverty line at $15,000 would see their tax increase from $1,580 to $2,250, a $670 rise.

140 people from trump's last administration Wrote it. The party platform is something to pull out to say, look what we are for. Please look up the voting record for YOUR Congressman or senator.
@@conniegilchrist6925 I follow Politics fairly closely. I do not Trust the RINO's in the Republican Party, and for sure do not trust any Politicians in the democrat Party. I am a Populist, a Constitutionalist, and Trump Supporter, and believe in the Foundation of our Individual Rights and Freedoms - The Bill of Rights. There are many positions in the Heritage Foundation 2025 Program that I could agree with, however Trump has stated openly that the heritage Program 2025 is NOT his Platform - the RNC Platform is his own Platform. Trump's last Administration was his Last Administration, and now he is much more savvy as to the Persons who will be part of his Administration and its guiding ideals and principles. The voting record of my Congressman and Senator are important to me, however their positions are fairly much in line with my own. And if all Voters followed your advise and communicated openly with their representatives or Senators, then that would be entirely appropriate as Citizenship demands this. One might follow the UN Agenda 2030 and the Un Small Arms Treaty, which are entirely anti-Bill of Rights, but the principles and positions and goals in those Documents are being implemented under the Biden Administration, to the extent that it is able. Lastly, I do recommend doing a Deep Dive of Discovery into The Transition Integrity Project, which was begun a year and a half prior to the 2020 Presidential Election by a "Former Associate of George Soros". Google COL (Ret) Lawrence Wilkerson and the many Associated Articles and Video which might still be on Google and You Tube regarding the Three Groups which comprised the TIP. At one time there were 4 Pages of Articles etc., on that Organization, which was an anti-Trump Organization staffed by Silicon Valley Technicians. a few token RINO's, Democrat Attorneys, Politicians, Governors, and Retired General Officers and other Officers, all with direct and indirect lines to all Agencies of Government and gaming out all possible scenarios and events taking place in Washington DC and involving President Trump during the Transition Period from Election to Inauguration. This also covered the coordination to the response of Government Agencies to the Jan 6 2021 Mall Rally and the subsequent events at the Capital Building - all of which the TIP had some two Months to plan and prepare for.
All this guy said was I don't know? Why don't you know? You take people income popular of 2023 and do math based on the proposal tax numbers. Then, predict it for this plan.
Being a lower income myself this actually sounds pretty dang fair Consumption makes much more sense than income. Would be nice of 100% of income went away and it was based on sales and consumption. Would help us lower income a ton if so. 😜
The rebuttal to that is that lower income people will be spending all their money on necessary items and won't have enough to pay for other things to stimulate economy

Free Trade basically means you have the right to have a yard sale without owing anybody anything . For example , you could have a lemonade stand and charge a dollar per cup without giving 35 cents to anybody . It also means you can fix something for somebody for whatever number y’all wish and , again , there’s no nonsense attached to it . If a job were to cost you 100 bucks , you earn your 100 bucks . You don’t lose 35 percent because some nobodies claim to represent you to such an extent that they try to persuade you to believe it belongs to them .

Q.How do US corporate income tax rates and revenues compare with other countries’?

@@daviddelgado6090 Balance in life would fix our economy. If we let people put their tax dollars towards what they believe in instead of what the government believes in. For example we travel which means Illinois is our home address but we’re mostly out of state. If it weren’t for 5 cameras I would never see my home. We pay property taxes to Illinois even if it’s not the state we’re working in. Do you think a state that’s not being worked in deserves taxes from the person not working in that state? I say no it should go to the state we are in for the use of their resources. If you have a different view would be interested to hear what and why?
Sales tax is already a thing and people spend now even though it’s a thing.
Want pay taxes on what we bought? We already paid taxes on what we bought
It would hopefully eliminate “sales tax” and replace it with something like “Value Added Tax”, just like what they have in the UK.

Sounds terrible! Mexico maybe an option
The rich want to get richer
It would for the elderly, the disabled and the working poor
Same way wealth taxes discourage the accumulation of wealth, high income taxes discourage the chasing of higher incomes... People need to acknowledge that taxes need to go down and government needs to downsize. That's the only solution.
Did a gas tax discourage driving?
It will be highly inflationary, dampen productivity, unemployment will skyrocket and many small retail businesses will fold.
Low income folks can say good bye to their “7-15k “earned income “ tax credit they get for the children they claim on their annual taxes. Im sure his tax laws would do away with those fat checks that help to stimulate the growth of the economy each tax season

He says "Its hard to know how this will impact low income people"...if there is a consumption based federal income tax, its pretty well accepted knowledge that consumption based taxes disporaportionately affect lower income populations...
Yes have heard that
It won’t change a damn thing, the rich will get richer and the non-taxing paying grifters will continue benefiting….
no this won't FLY and the poor would have to pay more.
Sounds like they are wanting to raise your taxes. They are wanting to a flat tax + a consumption tax. The absolute best way to tax would be a national sales tax. No more income taxes. No more filing income tax. When you go out and buy things you then pay the tax. The only thing the IRS would have to do is monitor businesses to make sure the taxes were collected. No more bothering citizens with the tax code. The more you consume the more tax you would pay.
A sales tax hurts people on fixed incomes and low wage earners the most
@@emilyfeagin2673 That’s what they are proposing with a consumption tax only they want to add a flat tax to it. If you want to help low income earners you do the national sales tax but you exempt food, housing and medical from taxes. That helps us all but it helps lower income a lot.

@KeepITBURNTmijo So you have brought your brown shirt and jack boots already
Any proposal involving taxes, tariffs and money in general from MAGA is suspect. Period.
It should be 15% for anyone who makes more than 300k.
So based on the single federal income bracket, if you make less than 47k that's a tax increase, but over 47k up to 168k, it's a tax decrease. Then if you make more than 168k up to 192k, it's a tax decrease, then it's pretty much slightly less.
Married, it's a tax increase until you make 95k, then it's a decrease up to 383k.
😂 that tax bracket is a joke.
Not really, a flat tax comes with no deductions and no loopholes. Like the Democrats always say people should pay their fair share. With a flat tax the more you make the more you pay with no way of getting out of any of it.
@joshuawilliams2310 if you do the calculations the tax burden shifts to those with lower income. For example Under the proposed 2-tier tax system with 15% for incomes up to $168,000 and 30% for incomes above, someone earning just above the poverty line at $15,000 would see their tax increase from $1,580 to $2,250, a $670 rise. Conversely, an individual making $140,000, which is double the average American income, would see their tax decrease from $27,000 to $21,000, saving $6,000.
@@royaltyblessed2454except for the fact that the person making 140 doesn’t pay that because he contributes to a 401k and writes off everything he can to eliminate his entire tax burden, a flat tax would remove the ability to write anything off.
Taxes as a whole is a joke
It sounds like they want to tax the poor as equally as they tax the rich. That’s despicable!

The Project 2025 is NOT part of the Republican Party Platform - which is easily accessible online.
140 people from trump's last administration Wrote it. The party platform is something to pull out to say, look what we are for. Please look up the voting record for YOUR Congressman or senator.
@@conniegilchrist6925 I follow Politics fairly closely. I do not Trust the RINO's in the Republican Party, and for sure do not trust any Politicians in the democrat Party. I am a Populist, a Constitutionalist, and Trump Supporter, and believe in the Foundation of our Individual Rights and Freedoms - The Bill of Rights. There are many positions in the Heritage Foundation 2025 Program that I could agree with, however Trump has stated openly that the heritage Program 2025 is NOT his Platform - the RNC Platform is his own Platform. Trump's last Administration was his Last Administration, and now he is much more savvy as to the Persons who will be part of his Administration and its guiding ideals and principles. The voting record of my Congressman and Senator are important to me, however their positions are fairly much in line with my own. And if all Voters followed your advise and communicated openly with their representatives or Senators, then that would be entirely appropriate as Citizenship demands this. One might follow the UN Agenda 2030 and the Un Small Arms Treaty, which are entirely anti-Bill of Rights, but the principles and positions and goals in those Documents are being implemented under the Biden Administration, to the extent that it is able. Lastly, I do recommend doing a Deep Dive of Discovery into The Transition Integrity Project, which was begun a year and a half prior to the 2020 Presidential Election by a "Former Associate of George Soros". Google COL (Ret) Lawrence Wilkerson and the many Associated Articles and Video which might still be on Google and You Tube regarding the Three Groups which comprised the TIP. At one time there were 4 Pages of Articles etc., on that Organization, which was an anti-Trump Organization staffed by Silicon Valley Technicians. a few token RINO's, Democrat Attorneys, Politicians, Governors, and Retired General Officers and other Officers, all with direct and indirect lines to all Agencies of Government and gaming out all possible scenarios and events taking place in Washington DC and involving President Trump during the Transition Period from Election to Inauguration. This also covered the coordination to the response of Government Agencies to the Jan 6 2021 Mall Rally and the subsequent events at the Capital Building - all of which the TIP had some two Months to plan and prepare for.
All this guy said was I don't know?
Why don't you know? You take people income popular of 2023 and do math based on the proposal tax numbers. Then, predict it for this plan.
Being a lower income myself this actually sounds pretty dang fair Consumption makes much more sense than income. Would be nice of 100% of income went away and it was based on sales and consumption. Would help us lower income a ton if so. 😜
SOunds fair... until you realize that people will spend less to lower their taxes...which will result in a depression.
The rebuttal to that is that lower income people will be spending all their money on necessary items and won't have enough to pay for other things to stimulate economy
we already PAY enough taxes.... not our fault they WASTE all our money!
I'm all for no tax on tips. Great Idea.
Irs should tax it like every other income.. why should tips be exempt?
If there is a consumption tax and higher tariffs why have a income tax?

Do you see the problem with all of the people who just repeat what they’ve heard now ? That is the definition of fakenews . Use your noggin .
Free Trade basically means you have the right to have a yard sale without owing anybody anything . For example , you could have a lemonade stand and charge a dollar per cup without giving 35 cents to anybody . It also means you can fix something for somebody for whatever number y’all wish and , again , there’s no nonsense attached to it . If a job were to cost you 100 bucks , you earn your 100 bucks . You don’t lose 35 percent because some nobodies claim to represent you to such an extent that they try to persuade you to believe it belongs to them .

Q.How do US corporate income tax rates and revenues compare with other countries’?
A.The US corporate income tax rate is now lower than the top rate in all other leading economies except for the United Kingdom. Corporate income tax revenues in the United States as a share of gross domestic product have been lower than the average in other leading economies, even before the 2017 reduction in the US corporate tax rate.
Taxes fall drastically, spending drops dramatically, and the USA returns closer to constitutionality.
