President Donald Trump joined his family at their "Winter White House" for the holidays Friday night after signing the GOP Tax Bill into Law, and reportedly told wealthy friends dining at Mar-a-Lago "you all just got a lot richer."

Days before heading away for the holidays, Trump told White House reporters that the tax bill would be "one of the great Christmas gifts to middle-income people." However, Mar-a-lago's exclusive dinner guests would have paid a $200,000 initiation fee and $14,000 in annual dues to Trump's golf club and resort.

Trump made the comment to friends eating dinner at a nearby table, two of whom spoke of the encounter with CBS News.

Oh my body Ghia tac cit is only for Rich.The Rich Will be Richher the poor will be poorer.

Read this article and you'll be pissed

Not poorer per say... just not much better off

 

The rich being taxed less in itself doesnt make us poorer. In fact there can be a slight benefit if Corporations invest more... also RSPs and stuff perform better

 

Its just the benefit middle class will get is tiny compared to the rich themselves

It ends up being a net loss for the average middle class citizen (and lower than that) in that they will eventually end up paying more than they do now. The "benefit" is some kind of trickle-down boogey man that counts on the rich investing more and giving back, which does not happen :rip: 

In many ways, people will be "poorer" and also worse off. There are also things like changes to deductions for people, like the change in local and state deductions, which will "Trickle down" to potentially less revenue and funding available for schools.

It really just widens the income gap more, but thats kind of the conservative MO, so :shrug:
