    Mod: I'm going to let this run but can people post a bit more constructively than the above two posts please.

    The foreigner residing among you must be treated as your native-born. Love them as yourself, for you were foreigners in Egypt. I am the LORD your God.

    Trickle down economics is a nonsense. Trump's tax plan will end up being a disaster if it comes to pass. The budget deficit and debt will skyrocket, even beyond the ridiculous levels it's currently at.

    Added a minor change to your post as highlighted there based on the current congress, senate and president. Not that the budget would ever balance on the made up ideas from it but since it's of personal benefit to their major donors and themselves and they tried it before I can't see how it will not go through in the end.

    The problem is the Republican base (and American people) who still believe they can work hard and get rich and hence will benefit from it. The American dream simply does work any more; it's not the 70s but everyone still believes and acts as it is. It's the exact same style of nostalgia people are caught up with in UK and other European countries as well where people rather than adapt to the current realities dream back to "the good old days".
