That’s the repubs’ mindset; cut from the environment that which enhances it and give it to those who need it the least. That tree is now dead. I doubt that is what this artist intended though.
I have to say I’m very disappointed that Democrats didn’t fight harder and use PR machinery to expose this tax mess the Repugs created for what it is to the country. Sometimes you can fight a fire with fire. I guess too many of them have the same donor overlords as the right wingnuts.
Is there anyone left who does not see the harm that a two opposing party system can cause when it degenerates to unitary rule … ignoring the will of the people?
A great and true cartoon. Great for ME and the One Percent Republicans, and YOUR house and those of the Democratic working class are going to burn down. We win!
Ryan says the money rich people have stashed overseas is “trapped there due to our tax laws”. The one per cent stashed the money overseas to avoid US taxes in the first place.
She drinks from the font of the Mock turtle soup,more from the Ryanaid and yet she is a mere underpaid political cartoonist. Her tax break must be as ineffective as what most will get(and those many of those will see problems with healthcare,Medicare and other “entitlements” down the road. Where is the funding?

Does Ms. Benson know she’s telling the truth?

New York state citizens won’t see a bit of the new tax benefits because of their tax laws.

I think by (house) he means the House of Representatives.

Again, Lisa Benson ignores that this so-called tax “reform” increases income inequality in the USA!
[ It is a pay-off to the GOP’s campaign contributors! ]

Once they’ve removed all the “gifts” from underneath, it’ll be burning (in the) grate. They want something to warm the cobbles of their hearth.

Gee, I wonder who will pay that $1.5 Trillion bill when it comes due? The “rich”? Not very likely. That leaves….YOU!
