#1 They believe everything you create belongs to them. You peasants should be happy with the crumbles they let you keep.

#2 What it’s triggered is a massive increase in dividends. And when 35 percent of U.S. equities are owned by foreigners, that means that more money left the country from the tax bill than flowed to 99 percent of Americans.

This is so densely stupid it's hard to unpack. Try this, Sean: Outlaw dividends payments by US companies and see how the retirement community and pension funds like that. Check your will first. Or, prohibit the investment of foreign capital in US companies; take two aspirins and call us in three months.

#4 most of the money from the tax cuts went to people who did not need it.

And Sean Casten and the Democrats will determine just what you need. "From each according to his ability, to each according to his needs" Where have I heard that before?

#5 And it hasn’t triggered investment. It hasn’t triggered wage growth.

I'll see your 1.2 GDP growth under Obumble and raise you to 4.2 GDP growth under Trump.

Woman and minorities not hardest hit

When does he want to start rolling up the slackers to work on the collective farms?
