The Trump-Tax plan clearly does offer very nice monetary rewords for the rich. The estate tax as a simple example will go away in 2024. That says if the Donald can live another 7 years, his kids will reap perhaps a billion dollar tax savings in their inheritance . That's just not right.
And do I understand that the middle class can expect to see perhaps $400 a year in tax savings starting next year? Wow isn't that great. The annual wage of $75,000 has been used to talk about who will get the windfall of $400. The target inflation rate for the Fed is 2%. That means that in a typical year, what cost a dollar last year costs $1,02. That's 2% more. What cost you last year $75,000 assuming you spent the total earning, will cost $76,500. (2% of $75,000 is $1,500.) So you're going backwards just a little tiny bit slower. I'd rather have the $ billion.
