Which of these tax subsidies do you want to stop paying for?

Which of these tax subsidies do you want to stop paying for?
Tell your Congress person you aren’t going to pay for it anymore. In the upcoming tax bill, which of these tax subsidies would you end: http://www.goodjobsfirst.org/ sites/default/files/docs/pdf/UncleSamsFavoriteCorporations.pdf. Here are the largest corporate welfare recipients: https://www.cheatsheet.com/ business/high-on-the-hog-the-top-8-corporate-welfare-recipients.html/?a=viewall. GOP wants to cut taxes for the rich and increase the interest payments on debt to the Chinese! GOP idea that corporations make jobs with tax cuts was proven wrong by KS 2010, when they cut taxes and almost went bankrupt. Tax cuts are usually invested overseas where the corporation can make more money from cheap labor. Example: Carrier got tax breaks from IN and sill moved to Mexico because wages are ¼ US wages.  
REAL reform means an end to the corporate loopholes and subsidies. But how can Congress do that when our ‘reps’ get their money from same companies? They give profitable energy firms like Exxon subsidies they don’t need. GOP propaganda of tax reform hides the increases for us. Ask your ‘rep’ to end just one subsidy!

Many corporations pay no taxes already
Trump and GOP want to cut taxes for corporations but most don’t pay taxes now. Many store their cash overseas so they can’t be taxed. We can’t do that legally! We must pay tax on all worldwide income and most of us don’t have a legal team (deductible) to avoid taxes with legal gimmicks. For instance, some like Google use the Dutch Sandwich to save $3.6 Billion in taxes. Others use the Double Irish to use foreign tax laws we can’t.
Some receive our tax money as subsidies even though they are profitable: Nike, Royal Dutch Shell, Fiat Chrysler, Ford, GM, Intel, Alcoa, Boeing. 75% of disclosed subsidy dollars have gone to 965 big companies. The total known value of subsidies across the country came out at an estimated $110 billion, although it’s likely more.

Warren Buffett can be your investment 'advisor'
He does not charge trading commissions or fees. You can’t pick the wrong stocks. You can earn 11% on your long-term money and end up with HALF a million dollars or more with one phone call. The average advisor-assisted investor earned just 3.79% instead of the market rate of 11%. You use the strategy proven by Warren Buffett, the greatest investor of our time. We beat Wall Street at their own game by using Warren Buffett's strategy: buy and keep buying the largest mutual funds run at cost and owned by us, the investors. Buffett prediction: index beat best hedge fund ‘professionals’ by a mile.
            A plain market index fund beat 92-95% of the returns of "professional" managers, including hedge funds. Stock picking by geniuses works only for a short time. Insiders may have an edge but it is illegal and you could get caught like Martha Stewart. 
      To earn more, we pay as little as we can. We own stocks of companies with certain characteristics. We pay less and get more. 
     We use a special investment account to eliminate all future income and capital gains taxes. It is IRS approved for workers only. 
       No one can time the market successfully over time. We don't pay Wall Street owners the $1.3 Trillion per year revenues they take from their clients.

Who will be against ‘Medicare for All’ law?
99% of all Americans would benefit with FREEDOM from rising prices, co pays and deductibles, paperwork, anxiety of paying for illness if they could find an affordable plan, finding a medical team to treat their family from birth to death. Most people over 65 love having care with Medicare and Medicare Advantage, a system that was created because NO ONE wants to be searching for care after age 65 when NO insurer wants to pay the bills. So who is trying to kill Bernie Sanders’ bill? All insurers, drug firms, pharmacy benefit management firms and their hundreds of lobbyists and lawyers. These are the people who decide whether and how long each of us will live and die. Our doctors don’t make the decisions in consult with our families. Consider how many TV and magazine ads we pay for to boost a drug use despite side effects that make an erection last for 4 hours or kill you after promising “longer life.” Lobbyists are paid to tell our ‘reps’ what to do about health care. They have created this system. They were against Medicare when it started and they are against ‘Medicare for All’ too. Put the lobbyists out of business.
Tell your ‘rep’ you want to take back your health care management. We will save big!
You favor ‘Medicare for All.’ It’s not socialism but social security for our families just like all the Congress people and staffs have in Washington and the state houses! Equality.  

GOP religionists blame gays for god’s floods and get rich too
Religionists say “this flood is from God,” punishment for the former mayor of Houston attempting to subpoena ministers’ sermons. Some attribute the storm to a wrathful God’s vengeance on liberals. Pastor Rick says storms don’t “happen by accident.” Pastor Kevin Irma would be altered by God if the Supreme Court quickly made abortion and gay marriage illegal. ‘Pastor’ Rush says Irma is way to advance liberal agenda on climate change. ‘Pastor’ Alex asks the govt to fix Irma before it floods FL. Most GOP believe Darwin’s evolution theory is wrong and the world was created recently. Today, 16  SIXTEEN million Americans think chocolate milk comes from brown cows. Trump wants TX churches to receive federal funds for flood damage even though they have insurance. GOP budget spending bill allows churches to influence elections for ideologues. GOP is twisting Christ teachings to favor the ‘Pharisees.’

Buy American Mr Trump!
Save America--buy cars and trucks by buying Toyota, Honda, Hyundai, BMW and Mercedes-Benz. Yes, most models sold in America are made in America, while several Ford, GM and Dodge models are made in Mexico and Canada. Check where your vehicle is made: https://www.kbb.com/car-reviews-and-news/top-10/my-car-is-made-where/2100000943-20/

Save up to 50% on the price of slightly used luxury car
If you do not wish to pay to rent a car forever (leasing), your best deal could be buying a 3 year old luxury model like a BMW 3 or 5 or E class. For instance, after a 36-month lease, you could nab an E350 for $33,727 or less (48.4%) off the original price. For one of the safest and most recognizable luxury cars on the market, you could do much worse for a $65,000 car. In Consumer Reports rankings of the 2014 luxury models, E-Class scored best in reliability among German models.

Do you pay taxes at a higher rate than the idle rich?
You probably pay federal and state income tax, payroll tax, Medicare and Social Security and maybe union dues and hopefully discounted health insurance. If you are lucky you have enough left over to invest for retirement. If you are really lucky you are buying your home and paying property taxes. Most surveys say that you are paying at least 34% just for taxes. Add union dues of $500, family health insurance $6,471, family leave insurance $26, unemployment insurance $138, and pension $6,000. You also may be paying $7,000 on your home and $2,000 in property tax. Most people live in states with sales tax and pay 5-7% of their disposable income on stuff they need to live. All 97 taxes.
Warren Buffett pays 17.7%, Mitt Romney pays 15%, John Kerry pays 13% and Apple pays 9.8%. Buffett says he does nothing special to avoid taxes. Looks like the wealthy ALREADY have a flat tax Mr Cruz. Congress is NOT talking about cutting our TOTAL taxes. We could if we ended all the subsidies and loopholes. President Trump claimed he pays as little as possible—1995 return shows he got a refund and had charge offs for about 20 years too. Until Congress cuts our TOTAL taxes, we all should …

So you want a safe high return on your money?
God has not created that investment yet. To receive a high return with little chance of loss you must give your money to a bank as the owner. To receive a return of 10-12% per year with little chance of loss, you must leave your money in profitable companies for a period over 20 years. In a business, there are many factors that determine if the owners make money in any given year. However, most of the largest firms will make money or the owners would hire a new manager or sell their shares.
There are no safe and sure businesses like salesmen describe in a get-rich-quick scheme. Just ask Warren Buffett, the guy who consistently makes over 20% a year for his company owners. Buffett recommends you buy low-cost index funds that own many companies and pass the returns on to you. Simple. But it’s hard to wait.

Your KEY decisions on Social Security start before Congress cuts back on benefits
GOP Ryan has vowed to cut benefits because we are getting older. Reagan fixed SS in the 1980s so you must wait for your full benefits. Ryan wants to cut benefits instead of increasing the salary cap beyond $127,200. If you are wealthy, you don’t pay ANYTHING into the system because you have dividends not wages: you get the benefits. Why not tax ALL income?
Your decision is Option 1: keep working and collect more. Benefits are 76 percent higher than it would be if you started taking benefits at 62, and 32 percent higher than it would be if you claimed at age 66, your normal start age. Option 2: Start at 62 because you could die. Option 3: Claim your spouse benefit if married 10 years. Option 4: Even if they die, you can claim theirs. Option 5: Ask SS about the difference between widow/widower and spousal benefits. Option 6: Ask for help to apply for disability benefits. Option 7: Know your benefits now: http://www.myretirementpaycheck.org/. Option 8: We almost lost $1,485 a month in benefits because we failed to visit the local SS office. If you fail to find your correct option early, you can’t go back.

Medicare for ALL
Bernie Sanders thinks we can have health care for less cost. Americans pay about double what other countries pay in total for less care. Many Americans have to sit in hospitals all day to be seen. Millions who work for employers without benefits don’t get care and must get sick to go to the hospital for major problems especially in GOP states.
Imagine paying nothing when you go to the doctor’s office—no copayments, deductibles or portion of your bill. Any prescription drugs would cost you no more than $200 per year. And for all this, you’d pay insurance premiums of just 4% of your income. Since everyone is covered, most doctors and hospitals will have to accept Medicare reimbursement.
The only people who lose are the middlemen and women who get paid to stand between us and health care providers. They employ another group of wealthy people to tell our ‘reps’ what to do on laws. The insurance company infrastructure would have to find something else to do. That clerk who tells you that you are not covered for the procedure your doctor recommends would need to find work. Also the hundreds at the pharmacy wholesaler who decide EpiPens should cost you $609 not $30. Also hundreds of marketing people who make TV and media adverts to sell drugs to your doctor. Yes, doctors are being told what to push. Can our ‘reps’ get elected w/o drug money?
If GOP can vote to end ObamaCare, they could vote for Medicare for US.

Trump is still just a mafia contractor from Queens—Dad taught him to be The Don.

Smoking gun: “Our boy can become president of the USA and we can engineer it,” Sater wrote in an email to lawyer Cohen. “I will get all of Putins team to buy in on this.” 

Trump’s group places mob ties above country; it’s about money POWER not US service.

Mobsters don’t call the FBI when Jr doing an illegal deal with fellow mobsters.


Russian agent admits to propaganda war on US. We were duped by pro-Trump agents.

Ministry of Truth1984 novel:
There is deal on DACA, The Wall, storm funds, debt, taxes. The dealmaker always wins.
Trump: middle class is the focus of tax plan, taxes on the wealthy need to increase.

My Theory:
No one expected him to win so no harm getting Putin help. Don owes Vlad’s mob money so they sent mob gofer Manafort to run the campaign. ‘Colluding’ Putin style.


TrumpWorld – using presidency to make money the old fashioned way: theft


Dictator talk time:
“When the president does it, that means it is not illegal,” Richard Nixon

The Don is moving us to a dictatorship where the only people who go to jail are his enemies and non whites he does not like. Racists and nationalists get pardons. If Flynn and Manafort get indicted by Mueller, The Don will just give them a “get out of jail free” card so they don’t rat him out.
Dictators use “back to law and order” to limit rights, fill jails, fund army, follow enemies.
Trump associates fear his revenge more than the special prosecutor and jail for lying. 


The president can’t have a conflict of interest.” The Don is above the law?

Quid pro quo: "something for something."
Govt voter integrity witch hunt commission for suppressing DEM votes in 2018.
DACA deal to let immigrants work and pay tax but not vote DEM in 2020.
Wall funds in form of ‘border security’ bill.
Trump rescinded Obama flood reg so Houston builders could build/flood anywhere.


How many Americans would vote to bring back Obama? He did things we need done.


Regulation is necessary: We need protection. Saves $12 billion of our money!




Trumper misunderstands NH voter rules and claims voter fraud gave Hill election there.
            Trump staff has 2 state voter registrations too: it’s legal: NO FRAUD study shows

SCAMS:
Flooded cars make excellent used car scams: note the signs before you buy.
DEMs fooled again. “He likes us. He likes me, anyway,” Schumer. Trump likes only one.

Jobs:
Trump doubled the apprenticeship program—skip college debt and earn now.

Who owns your account now?


Miracle:
Can anyone shut Hillary up about all the people who lost her election for her?
