What's this?

That’s The Republican way—

Cut taxes and allow the increased taxpayer spending to increase simply b/c the taxpayer has more discretionary income to spend due to lower taxes. 🤷‍♂️ Folks, it’s not rocket science. Most Americans spending increases as income increases. Reduced tax burden IS increased income for those slow learners out there. 🤔😊
