but at least now baby jesus will stop shedding tears because transgenders and intersex people can now be labeled with their correct biblical gender
that will make the poor religious folks happy at least, right? they don’t need grocerries, baby jesus is happy the transgenders are suffering! delicious!
Is this from the extention of last tax cuts that are still active but set to expire unless renewed? Or a new proposal on top of that policy?
I don’t think we know anything yet for real. I believe they included the costs of the tarrifs into everyday Americans taxes, because they are taxes after all… But Madam President changes the percent on tarrifs and to whom every time they talk, so unless someone actually writes something down, we’ll never know anything concete. It is concrete that they are no longer a man though.
This is nothing, wait until the Trump tariffs kick in and everything gets more expensive.
you say prices will go up, all I can hear is it’s going to become cheaper to steal.
The price at which it becomes a felony won’t charge. You’d have to do it in organized groups like the raids in LA a number of years ago.
…a number of years ago? 😅
April 26th, 1992, there was a riot on the streets, tell me, where were you?
How much does it cost to steal?
Can’t wait for shitty plyboard furniture to be marked up 489% because we got to import them from China/Vietnam or other SE countries.
Like seriously, what even gets made in the US that is reasonably affordable and is of a decent quality.
guns
While true, US guns aren’t even on top anymore. Canik has become an unbelievably popular brand in recent years, and they’re headquartered in Turkey.
It looks like they aren’t planning to institute the new changes until spring this year. Is that correct, or am I misreading the website?
That’s on top of the increase starting now as well.
The tax plan of 2017 cut taxes for everyone, but starting last year they went up for anyone not making 300k or more.
Who would have think he would do the same thing he did in his first term again?
Less than half of the voters, apparently.
Something tells me most of his voters have no idea what he did last time
Also no idea what he’s doing now
Trump: “Hannibal Lecter is a fine man.” jerks off two dicks
Trump supporters: “😍😍 He’s gonna fix the economy and make America great again!”
They were all trying to figure out why Obama wasn’t in the oval office for 9/11
Graph is from October 2024 this isn’t some new version that was just released either
Correct. And it is still current.

If you look at “breakdown of tax propoals by category” note that it doesn’t account for inflation, for example giving a reduction to everyone for tax cuts. But in the real world, that’s not how it works. Tax cuts that are paid for with deficit spending like these are essentially zero-sum because the price of everything will have to increase to account for spending power. So in other words, it’s even worse for everyone but the 1% than indicated.
The last two times I’ve been to Costco they’ve been out of eggs. One of these days I’m expecting the Cash & Carry to be out of eggs too. Then the Rosaures, the Safeway, and the mini mart too. Just think of the savings in not buying any eggs at all!
“You get bird flu! You get bird flu! Bird flu for everyone!”
-Trump FDA soon
He’s going to force factory farms to stop culling sick chickens, isn’t he? Somehow RFK will get involved with the chickens’ rights
Is there a source on this? Not that I don’t believe it, I’m sure this is exactly what’s going to happen, but if I bring it up in conversation saying “I saw it in a meme” will deflate the argument.

just say I did my own research and anyone dumb enough to ask for a source in casual conversation will be satisfied.
Ugh, I hate it when people provide evidence for their claims! When someone tells me that Haitians are eating dogs, I just believe them if the conversation is casual enough
Woah, what a casual conversation! I will passively absorb this info and not question it at all, as that would make me dumb (DAE dumb is when skepticism?). Good thing I am immune to propoganda! /clueless
You’re getting down voted cuz you’re rude but honestly yeah. If someone asks you in person for a source you just say, yes I have a source it’s the Trump tax plan that he announced. It’s not a secret
That’ll help pay for those aircraft carriers … for about an hour
I think you severely underestimate how many people are involved in the income tax scam.
Even if we’re just talking eggs, they’re up about $1.50 per dozen in my area and Der Blöderfürher has only been in office three days.
Well at least that war over in Ukraine is over!
Day 1!
eggs are almost 6 dollars a dozen here, they were around $2 a few weeks ago. it’s crazy
I don’t think I can afford to prop up the wealthy any more than I already am doing now. Guess I’ll need to get a fourth job to help pay off Musk and company tax relief.
Work those bootstraps

Isn’t their source of data characterized as “left-leaning”? How valid is this information?

Yeah, google ITEP and see that they are classified as “left leaning”. I feel like this lemmy instance is all hard-left at this point.
I hope they starve. If I was running a soup kitchen I’d refuse to serve anyone who voted for this.
In my area the soup kitchens are manned by, and frequented by almost exclusively Trump voters. It’s deep red.
You’d think they would just give the hungry people the middle finger instead then like South Dakota
