I thought I’d listen to some wise words from David Stockman about the Trump tax plan. Stockman is, after all, a hero of libertarians. Instead, I got an earful of weasel words.
I can’t listen to a “libertarian” prattle about “paying for tax cuts.” You’re no libertarian if you talk like this. Taxes are private property stolen. Tax cuts are private property returned to its rightful owners. Or, so we hope. “Paying for tax cuts”: These are weasel words.

Larry Kudlow, Stephen Moore (he wrote a book praising the Bush ‘ownership society,’ more candidly known as the mortgage bubble), anyone?

Corporate America, on the other hand, will benefit big time:
Ordinary Americans whose income comes from labor, i.e., working Americans, will see no benefit from #Trump #taxplan. https://t.co/Nqa43UmuHd

Reduction of rates, but no restructuring of the tax code:
#Trump & President #Ivanka are obsessed with crooked corporate America. Nondestitute normals will see little reduction in their tax burden https://t.co/Ugqsyx12ob
