Trump's tax cut editorial pure delusion

In 'Trump's tax reform challenge' it's disappointing but not surprising the Trib accepts the premise that Trump's tax reform proposal is designed to increase overall American prosperity. The Trib knows full well Trump knows nothing about governing, much less improving US prosperity. Trump's proposal is simply to put Reagan style GOP tax cutting on steroids so wealthy corporations and individuals can grab as much middle class wealth as possible before the next collapse. We've been fed this tax cut kool aid by the Republicans for 36 years now since Reagan became president on the mantra 'Government is not the solution, it's the problem'. Then he cut taxes, stopped investing in jobs, infrastructure and people in need to begin the great funneling of wealth to his rich base. Oh yes, one sector of big government did get more...the military, squandering trillions to wage perpetual war while the rest of American crumbles and the non-rich get poorer. Except for the 16 years of Clinton and Obama, this has been the American story since 1981 and with Trump and the Trib promoting more tax cuts, it won't end well.   

Give already wealthy individuals and corporations more tax cuts and other economic incentives and they act against the public interest every time. Spend America's treasure on perpetual war that slaughter's hundreds of thousands of innocents instead of rebuilding America and uplifting the unfortunate and you've created a self destructing society. The Trib calls Trump's boast for the most massive tax cuts ever "exciting and dangerous." No, it's just dangerous. On second thought, make that 'suicidal'.
