#TaxScamBill

I had some fun with the trending hashtag #TaxScamBill on Twitter the other day. Here are my posts, ordered from the most popular to the least popular (all my tweets can be viewed here - https://twitter.com/CraigRozniecki):

1) Dear media:
When you hail a bill which screws over most of the public as a victory for the president because of the low bar he's set due to not passing anything significant in his first year, something is seriously wrong.

6) GOP: "We have to do something to have a chance in the 2018 midterms. So it's better to punch 99% of people in the face than to not swing at all. So yeah, vote for us in 2018. At least we punched you in the face."

At around 9:30, a friend of mine and I both chipped in $5 to play some songs on the jukebox. Four hours and 231 skips later, we gave up on hearing the songs we had selected, and went home knowing we had just wasted $5. This wasn't the first time such a thing had happened to me (and many others), and due to that, I'll be boycotting jukeboxes. Why? The scam known as TouchTunes.

It’s just going to cause countries that have been ripping us off for years, like China and many others, in all fairness to China – it’s going to just force them to pay us a lot of money, reduce our deficit tremendously, and give us a lot of power for other things." (tariffs) 5) "He also said he inherited 9 percent inflation." 6) "No, he inherited almost no inflation and it stayed that way for 14 months. And then it blew up under his leadership, because they spent money like a bunch of people that didn’t know what t...
