Quite a difference. Then I watched the ABC, NBC, CBS spin this morning.
Talk about BS!
They always prove they are a wing of the Democrat Party.

It is simple. Close the entire Mexican border and let the trucks back up all the way to Mexico City and Mexico will stop letting them in.



The Mexican government was paid to open their borders but
It’s going to backfire on them. When the northern border is fullll of caravaners including criminals and terrorists , they’ll regret their actions.

So it is not surprising your snobbish attitude towards those that have incomes much less than you. Too bad they are lazy and losers. I should not expect any empathy for them from elites such as your type.

You are so wrong. My income/profits would be twice as much if I stopped helping my fellowman.

I live in a large county that has no industry the only jobs are in local grocery stores, service stations or cutting ligs or paperwood. Half fhe population is on welfare and food stamps

Back in the 1930s Grandpaw let the TVA people build four military style barracks for the government workers in and around the Homochitto National Forrest area that was working in the area.

Once their work was finished the barracks were diven to Grandpaw for letting them use the area for their workers. It included a large kitchen and dinning area. Over the years they were unused but kept in good repair.

Around 1946-7 Grandpaw started hiring homeless WW-2 veterans for pittling jobs like rakeing pine straw, cleaning brush, fire lanes and simple jobs like that.

The men lived in the barracks and got three hot meals a day and a warm bed to sleep in. Even free tobacco and a few brewed Grandpaw secret corn squeezing.

Grandpaw even got a government permit to make it legal. Later as more homeless vets from Korea were hired and began planting seedlings to sell to the turpentine producers in Florida.

After Vietnam and Grandpaw bought me home out of the VA hospital my Sgt major and six other of my men came with him. They have been with me since 1963 when they were in my company in Vietnam. We served together and are still together today except for one who is resting in the family cemetery here on the farm.

We are having to hire more young locals due to our expansion of 510 acres. That's 25 new jobs for the local economy. We are building a trailer park on the 10 acres the house is locoted on. This way the family men can live on the farm. The couple that live in the house, the wife is on the payroll as a cook for the men doing the cleanup of stumps and limbs getting ready to plant Christmas trees.

I am the largest employeer in the county. I only pay minimum wages but the fringe benefits of free housing, utilities and meals make up for the low wages. The married women are also enployed as cooks or maids making up beds in the bachelors barracks. Two of the barracks have been converted into one bedroom and a bath apartments for married couples.

This un addition to the New Year, Valentine's, fourth of July, Thanksgiving and Christmas parties we throw for needy famlies. The welfare and local churches help with toys and clothing and t***sportation for the needy families. I do not deduct this from taxes I pay even though my tax expert advuses me to.

I try to share what God bless me with.

How much do you share with your needy famlies in your area?


🇺🇸 God bless America and President Trump.

Hear more of what MIDDLE AND WORKING CLASS tax payer are saying. Trumpy's chance of being re-elected in 2020 are going to disappear as tax season progresses and people are finding out that ,although they always had extra withheld from their pay checks, they STILL owe MORE in federal incomes taxes. As I predicted when trumpy, the repulsives, AND the dimwits (even though they did not v**e for the act, they knew it was a screwing for the middle and working class taxpayers) Tax Cut and Job Act of 2017 was all infavor of the wealthy and corporations NOT the middle class.

With tax season nearly upon us, some people have gotten ahead of the game and started preparing their returns. With the new tax law, many middle-class families are finding out that Trump's tax s**m has resulted in them owing thousands of dollars. For Trump supporters, this is an especially hard pill to swallow as you will see below.

@realDonaldTrump I trusted and v**ed for you, now, screwed by you. I fall JUST above a tax bracket, I don't get the 5000 return I've gotten the last 3 years. Money my family depends on to start us over. I served my country honorably. I will not make the same mistake twice.

@senSchumer well you were right about taxes going up. I am a Republican and I was wrong big time. If it doesn’t change I am not v****g for him. All my buddies are really mad they v**ed for him now.

@amusdrslr: We’re paying $5,000 more in taxes for 2018. Imagine our surprise! We v**ed for you, we have advocated for you, I have lost life long friends in support of you. I am truly disappointed. Not only have our taxes increased, but you’ve done nothing to fix our healthcare.

Replying to @realdonaldtrump: I v**ed for you the first time but after you screwed me on my tax break I won’t v**e for you again especially after I started on my 2018 return it’s a joke the taxes you are keeping from a working person good luck in 2020.

Yankees Hound: Just got my tax return completed for 1st time under new tax law. I’m officially paying more in taxes so rich people can pay less. You’re almost done wiping out the middle class. @realdonaldtrump and @gop this one is on you. I’d v**e for Hillary before I v**ed for you again.

@realdonaldtrump just did my taxes and thanks for increasing mine!! No change in income and got back $400 less than last year. That campaign promise was one of the only two reasons I v**ed for you. Rethinking that decision now.

I am a Republican v**er. I just did our taxes.

The @GOP tax bill cost my family THOUSANDS of dollars this year on our return due to changes, thereby hitting us with the LARGEST tax increase of our lives.

We are middle-class homeowners, and you raised our taxes.

Infuriating!

@POTUS thank you for screwing the middle class with your tax reform. I have never in my life, I’m 49 years old, had to pay into the IRS until this year. We have a combined income of 150,000. The middle class v**ed for you. I will not make the same mistake twice.

Hear more of what MIDDLE AND WORKING CLASS tax pay... (show quote)


I am nor in the top 1% and paid twice as much in tax this year than 2016 Omama policy kept my sales low for 8 years. Now with his stupid policy gone my sales and profits have doubled and so has my income tax. $335,689.50.

From the last year of obams policy sales were so low I only paid $150,698.50 so my taxes jumped up another $185,000.00 due to doubling my sales under the Trump administration.

I added close to 50 new employees and expanded my operations in a 6 year program expansion. There's not many jobs available in the area but I help my fellow man as much as possiable.

🇺🇸 God bless America and President Trump.

From the report I heard the guards "accidentally " forgot to lock the gates and left their post and let them slip through. If you believe that I have a couple bridges I will sell you real cheap.

I owe it all to grandpaw because he taught me to be conservative and help my fellow man. He set the example of hiring homeless veterans back in 1946 or 1948 and I just continued it. Now there are very few homless vets.

But there are enough young struggling couples that jump at the minimum wage jobs.

Now most people want to start at the top or get $15.00 per hour. That won't happen down here in the Mississippi boondocks where one is lucky to get even s minimum wages job.

I know it sunds like I am taking advantage of them but they have a roof over their heads, clean sheets on the beds, three hot meals per day, free lights, gas water, satellite TV it adda up.

Married couples have a private room and bathroom. On the new 510 acres there will be house trailers for the married couples in a few months.

Add it all together and it's a darn good job. All they have to pay for is any special foods they want or personal items or save their money for a car or truck.

The employees like the set up. Payday comes the only deductions are social security tax. Usually their wages are low enough they won't have to pay any income taxes.

They liks it and I like it.

The government gers enough of our money to waste anyway.



🇺🇸 god bless America and President Trump.
