Don't worry, the bottom 60% will get some tax relief soon, at the expense of the health coverage of the poorest. Of course, the top 10% will also get their "fair" share of relief.
So, bottom percenters, thank your local Republican for the $90 your going to be getting in exchange for your Medicaid. What will you be spending your Trump tax break on? Maybe it'll arrive just in time to help you pay for the new big video game release.
Also, it's going to create a deficit that will very likely trigger across the board budget cuts, including Medicare cuts. Likely part of the plan - all they have to do is nothing and "Oh no, the Democrats wouldn't help us cut more vital services and school lunch programs this year so the rules make it so everything gets cut! It's all their fault!"
