@SenFeinstein: UPDATE: Democrats just offered an amendment to ensure corporations use their tax savings to raise employee wages at the same rate they increase executive pay, stock buybacks and dividends to shareholders. Every single Republican voting, voted NO. #GOPTaxPlan
@SenatorDurbin: UPDATE: Senate Republicans are so desperate to pass their tax bill tonight that they're now making handwritten changes to their already handwritten changes...
Seriously. https://t.co/KQfW7bOyk1
@SenatorMenendez: Okay this is absurd. One page of the new #GOPTaxPlan is crossed out with an ex. Another page is just a line. Is that a crossout? Is this page part of the bill?
WHY AM I ASKING THESE QUESTIONS HOURS BEFORE WE VOTE ON IT?? #GOPTaxScam https://t.co/57Qbi7gT5F
If you excuse me, I need to go vomit.
Ted Cruz trying to expand 529 for K-12 education, because most lower and middle income families send their kids to private schools.
Passes 50-50 with Pence breaking the tie, a compete joke.
28% on a bill that helps maybe 1% of the population :facepalm:
I stayed up last night to watch the Ashes on my laptop(thanks for nothing, Willow) and flipped the tv to CSPAN around midnight. It was pretty surreal watching it unfold. I'm obviously a conservative, but there is nothing at all conservative about this bill. It's a complete disgrace to congress, the country, and americans. If this isn't a tipping point for change I'm not sure what would be. As others have pointed out, there is a lot of garbage in it beyond just the tax rate changes.

I make $14.10/hour. My taxes are gonna go up. I had thought about grad school, but if I can't deduct any of those expenses, might as well forget about it. Granted, I am applying for better jobs. But right now, I can't grin and bear it.

I think this test is the only one that conflicts 100% with an India match. However, it looks like I'll have to break down and buy the subscription. I like watching Kohli bat and Ashwin spin, but you can't beat the Ashes.
Oh, and the bill sucks. Maybe the conference can make it more palatable or gut it entirely and use the Red/Green plan.
And pigs fly.
