I've long been a supporter of a big infrastructure project. Don't really know specifics about Trump's plan in particular but I think it would probably be the easiest thing for him to achieve as there is bipartisan support for the idea.
I still don't understand why he didn't lead off with infrastructure as his first big legislative ticket for his administration, which is much less controversial than something like Obamacare repeal.
Tax reform, I think it will end up being less "reform" and more just normal tax cuts on a temporary basis.
Usually, people mean Transportation Infrastructure and energy related projects. Part of that can include networking technologies and technology (smart tech) to help with Transportation.
New York subway is falling apart. Many highway bridges and junctions are in danger of collapse. Water security for california, nevada, new Mexico etc to protect against future drought. Flood protection for hurricane risk states.
Funny that the NYC Sub Systme is falling apart....with with the RIDICULOUSLY High Taxes you have to pay in that state....I wonder what they are DOING WITH THAT MONEY!??

By you math the top 10% and top 1% together pay all the taxes? Yeah, I don't think that's right. The Middle Class pay the lion's share still, most likely.
Don't worry though, from what I seen of Trump's plan, the biggest tax breaks are going to corporations and the very top earners. I know, shocking.
I'm just curious, if corporations (and by extension people's incomes listed as corporations, millionaires and billionaires can do this) are getting a 15% reduction, who is picking up that slack? Cos the monkey's still gotta get fed, man.
edit: Yes, Trump will be eligible to put his earnings under the new Corp Tax bracket, meaning him and his buddies will be paying at the 20% rate. Oh Trumpers...
But it seems to me this tax plan is basically at it's core a giant boon to the top 1%, corporations and the uber wealthy who can list their personal earnings/profits under corporate status and will then get a nice tax rate of only 20%. (wouldn't you like to be taxed at only 20%?)
How does that make you feel and where do you think the money's going to come from to make up that 15% loss now, as the country runs on money?
