Letter: We’re being scammed

By
Published:

The Republicans are scamming us. Their tax plan delivers benefits to the rich through major cuts to programs needed and supported by the shrinking middle class. The tickler they offer is that U.S. corporations located overseas are encouraged, but not required, to relocate back in the States to provide jobs. It’s called trickle down, but more accurately it’s trickle up. It was invented by President Reagan. It didn’t work then, it won’t work now.

According to Factcheck.org and Politifact.com, by 2027, middle earners will pay more taxes, and the top 1 percent will pay less. It’s time for middle-class folks to stop voting Republican.
