Seems like it's more or less a sure thing at this point which is crazy. Pretty much every source has deemed this awful for the poor and middle class. Hell I'm a teacher and they're even taking away the tax break I can claim for spending money on stuff that schools SHOULD provide.

nah, 2 already oppose it and there's a decent chuck of republicans who seem concerned. At least one more will defect. Maybe McCain again (honestly surprised he's still kicking. I thought that his brain cancer gave him weeks to live, not this long)

idk how many times have they said they were gonna repeal obamacare? I was pretty nervous the first 4 or 5 times but after that, until I see them actually pass a bill, I don't care anymore.

Yeah, there's basically no way it passes in its current form.

His hatred of Trump is pretty much all that's still keeping him going.

I sure hope not. One thing I had to look forward to of republican rule was lower taxes but apparently I'm in the bracket of people whose taxes will actually go up. Fuck that shit

Welcome to the working class. It sucks.

Flat tax. Consumption tax.

Dissolve 80% of the IRS

Fair for everyone from top to bottom.

It honestly sucks for the upper class too. It caps tax deductions at $10k and prevents you from deducting mortage interest if your mortgage is more than $500k. As someone who's going into a career with an expected salary of $350-400k, this really concerns me.

It increases the deficit by $100 billion a year; that comes from somewhere.
