Jeb Bush tax plan would lose trillions and worsen inequality

It amazes me that PACs are still spending insane amounts of money to run Jeb Bush and Chris Christie ads. In the Northeast, I only recently started seeing John Kasich and Marco Rubio ads. Cruz, Fiorina and the others have zero presence up here (not surprisingly because no Republican has a shot in hell come the GE outside of New Hampshire maybe).

Jeb Bush said some terrible things about women's health issues.

Sure can. Virtually all the Republican tax plans increase the deficit. That is from the Obama cheerleaders over at taxfoundation.org.

new Deficit impact over 10 years that is over the currently estimated deficit.
(static estimate to dynamic estimate.)

Bush plan adds between 1.6 trillion to 3.7 trillion
Cruz plan adds between .8 trillion to 3.7 trillion
Trump plan adds between 10.1 trillion to 12 trillion
Rubio plan adds between 2.4 trillion to 6.1 trillion

Only Rand Paul creeps into deficit reduction, his dynamic estimate lowers the deficit by .74 trillion, but his static estimate would increase it by 1.8 trillion

To put this in perspective, in order to not add to the deficit, Trump would have to to cut spending by about 30 percent.

The worst part is, you could cut 30% of our programs, and your average American wouldn't know the difference. Like when the government shut down... did anyone even notice? If it wasn't for Obama trying to ban people from visiting national parks, I would have never noticed a difference.

Start by cutting those government funded studies on why lesbians are fat, and keep on going down the list of all the useless, stupid shit we are paying for.

You'd get to 30% pretty quickly.
