Trump promised to save Medicare
for working Americans
As a candidate, Trump repeatedly
said he would never cut Medicare, Medicaid or Social Security. Now
he wants to cut
Medicare by $554 billion and Medicaid by $250 billion. He will send
Medicaid money to states to eliminate coverage for citizens they don’t like. He
will cut the subsidies to millions who use the marketplace to buy insurance.
His budget cuts funding for the National Dislocated
Worker Grants – which provides support to those who lose their jobs because
of factory closures or natural disasters and the Adult Employment and Training Activities initiative, which serves high
school dropouts and veterans. Trump wants to cut $214 billion from the food stamp SNAP program in the next
decade, a reduction of nearly 30%. He is reducing Section 8 federal housing subsidies by more than $1
billion, zeroing out community
development block grants and eliminating a $1.9 billion fund to cover
public housing capital repairs—no new
boilers. 29 programs that aid poor children in education will be cut. Trump
selling our airports, our lands.
There will be No
cuts to subsidies for oil, gas, coal, agribusiness, drug firms, or arms
manufacturers. War machine gets more than it asked for from Trump. Plus
parades.

Trump’s attitude about both sides
of the story
Trump
suppresses the other side of the FBI story. Now he won’t release the other
side’s view of the process of FBI surveillance of known Putin agent “advisor
to the Kremlin” Carter Page. The irony is he wants sexual predators to
receive ‘due process’—let’s hear the other side. However, he is not
willing to let us read the Dems’ memo about the FBI.
The
Don complains that wife beaters and sexual
harassers like him do not get due process—we don’t hear why
they beat and harass women since we don’t have assault trials. He favors hiring
and praising wife beaters with tacit approval of the GOP religionists. He seems
to believe that if a predator like Judge Moore claims an ‘absolute
denial’ that that proves he was not a child
molester. Does this not leave many Trump voters with more concerns about
his ‘grabbing’ habits and paying prostitutes $137,000 for sex and twisting the
‘fake facts’ to his benefit? Lies about Tower wiretap.
Is
there anything that gives ‘conservative’American’s pause? Not sexual
assault, not prostitution, or not one-sided propaganda? Power corrupts
absolutely.
Why can’t we hear from both sides for
truth’s sake?
GOP gives military-industrial
complex $700 billion more
Americans vote for the
conservatives because they promise to not spend lavishly. It seems the GOP has
changed to the spending party. Senate leaders have reached a two-year deal that
would set defense spending at $700 billion for 2018 and $716 billion for 2019. “I’d
rather we didn’t have to do as much on non-defense, but this is an absolute
necessity, that we’ve got these numbers,” said the Senate Armed Services
Committee’s Jim Inhofe. Ryan has pushed for cuts in Medicare, Medicaid and
Social Security in order to fund the increases but Dems resisted the cuts. Kentucky
Republican Rand Paul cried about debt on Thursday after voting for the massive
debt increases for his tax breaks earlier. GOP likes to borrow to pay their
donors and then cut
programs that benefit working Americans. The rich get permanent relief from
future taxes while our tax
rate reductions expire in 2026. GOP
increases--not decreases--debt.

Best last minute tax saving move
Tax filing began Jan 29 even
though all the forms are late in arriving. If you find you owe tax instead of
hitting the refund button this year, you may still be able to claim your
refund. You can reduce your 2017 income and receive a tax credit. Credits
reduce your taxes dollar for dollar. In effect, Uncle Sam can help you reduce
taxes AND save for retirement at the same time. On line 32, Form 1040 or line 17, Form
1040a, you can enter up to $5,500 ($6,500 over age 50) as IRA contribution to
reduce your income. If you meet the qualification, a credit will show up on
Line 51, Form 1040 or Line
34, 1040a. You subtract this credit from your tax. EG: Income $66,000: tax
refund is $3,335, without IRA contribution. With the contribution, the refund
is $4,392 or $5,553 if you both make the contribution. Credit against tax is
$400. IRS checks to see you have IRA.
Trump
giving investment advisors another break
Trump’s
SEC will not fine or censure your advisor for
hiding the 12b-1 fees that mutual funds charge every year to pay for
marketing funds to other people. They should be disclosed before you buy. Trump
has given advisors a pass if they ‘self-report’ by June 2018. Advisors need to
tell you that the class of shares they sold you benefits their firm and
themselves and that there are cheaper shares available. In the past several
years, the SEC has brought cases against nine firms over failure to disclose
conflicts around the receipt of 12b-1 fees. Trump is removing safeguards
in every agency. Manipulation
by WS firms is rampant. Since no one sees the disclosures in the
prospectus, you may not know that your advisor fees can take up to 63% of your
possible accumulations.

Why luxury cars are NOT selling
Why are sales of Mercedes,
Porsche, Lexus, etc falling like a stone? Well-to-do buyers want something
different. They want 707
horsepower, 10 speed luxury rides. What? Yes, if you can drop $80,000+ at a
local lot, you want something to impress. BIG trucks are the thing. GM, Ford
and Jeep are making more money. You can control 7 different road surfaces, use big
chrome wheels, a power tailgate, cameras on four corners and an adaptive cruise
control system like Audi’s. The seats are nice too.
