Re: Tax bill
Obviously it's going to be a partisan bill and political hacks are going to make the most of whichever provision they can gloat or cry over. My question/lament is this:
What would it take to get a bipartisan majority to find a way to get past senate/house/party leadership and build a coalition of the middle?
It's like the one Libertarian commercial that I thought was pretty good, if you are a republican theyll find a democrat to match the vote and vice versa. Good in principle at least.
I really believe most citizens don't want the partisanship, but like me, and several of you on here from the other side, I'm not willing to give up some without getting some. I go back to the wall/daca, military reductions/raised ss age (grandfathered), educational reform and charter schools/added protections for low income schooling/support programs.
Both sides seem to have my way or the highway mentalities while demonizing the other sides opinions. If we can't negotiate and find the common center, then we as a country are going to hit a real rough patch sooner rather than later.
