I genuinely don’t understand it. We had years and years of brutal public services cuts and them being ground to the bone, where’s the money gone? People around me just say “tax cuts/payoffs for billionaires” but idk if that’s verified

    I live in the US and I am almost 60.

    I have seen so many tax cuts in my life and I have never seen spending reductions. The they does a tax cut also just spent more.

    I keep wondering when will people stop buying the lie of tax cuts……

      I’m almost 40 and I’ve only ever seen tax cuts for the rich. My taxes have only gone up. I’d be fine with my taxes going up if the rich people’s taxes went up too, but I pay more taxes than Amazon.
