More tax plan information for middle working class families...

The goal should be no refund. It is your money and we should all pay a similar tax. Remember, you do not get a tax 'refund' you just get your money back. The hard part is when someone under the poverty line with 5 kids files and gets back 4000.00. A family of five in the middle class usually gets back a few hundred or a bit more if they own a house.

Now, the first case did not pay that much in taxes so it is 'free' money. Then, there is a middle class guy who is paying the taxes and his taxes go to the one who does not work as much. Seem right? Nope.

Then, forget about high earners. It is a argument to tug at the heartstrings and bring drama but they pay the majority of taxes already.

There needs to be a tax cut. Personal and Business. Anyone who votes against ANY of the bills should not be voted for in 2018.

One thing for sure. This gift to the rich has one signature. The Republicans. Can't blame Hillary or democrats.

It's not a joke, but the personal attack shows that my post made sense it's just you don't like it. You're ok with socialized military but not socialized healthcare. Hypocrite.

Newest house amendment allows them to unilaterally cut social security and medicare if the tax plan ends up costing more than they are forecasting.

Real nice fellows here. Cut America's long standing support system so that they can eliminate the estate tax.

Some of the hardest hit will be student loan recipients: Nearly 12 million will be affected by repeal of the student loan interest deduction. Graduate students will be hit even harder, since the House tax bill proposes taxing tuition paid by their universities, which will raise taxes by nearly $10,000 on some students.

If your taxes are affected by $10,000 by the student loan interest deduction, you are not middle class. Doctors just out of internship have those kind of Interest deductions not normal college people. It's more a reflection on the government/collegiate complex cost of education than it is of taxes.

Doctors coming out of internship are most assuredly middle class.
