I was against the tax cuts only because they should have had proportional spending cuts. I would have liked to also have seen written into the bill that corporations that used over 15% of the value of the tax cut to buy back stock would be declared ineligible for the new rates. Also any corporation that outsourced 25% or more of jobs would also be ineligible. I’m for the tariffs. I’d like to see monies collected used to shore up industries that are truly harmed, such as farmers. We must level the playing field with China. Good news; tariffs are hurting China much more than us.

You seem pretty level headed and I feel the same about the tax cuts---Without the spending cuts the national debt just increases. I like your idea of making corporations play the game. I am skeptical of the tarriffs but I won't gripe if they actually work. Personally I think American companys should come home and make their products here. How to be rich means investing your capital in the country that made you great. You can make jobs for people and they can buy homes and build lives and raise familys. That is the moral thing to do.
