Biggest Reform EVER passed thread

It will stay unpopular. The GOP is about to experience the yin to the yang of the ACA strategy they employed for the last 8 years.

and if they even think about broaching the subject of entitlement reform? Yikes!
 
people aren't mad about paying a little less in taxes

people are mad at the accompanying cuts and the future debt burden for young people
 
Any news out there on when ADP would be able to make the changes and when people should expect to see a change in their paychecks? I mean the entire concept of a W4 becomes invalid once personal exemptions are eliminated. On the flip side, the math should be easy.
 
There are corporate tax accountants at public companies across america right now freaking out trying the implement the tax accounting impacts of these law changes.

Cornyn Pipeline Amendment Enriches GOP Lawmakers; Language Inserted As Cornyn’s Former Aide Lobbied On The Issue

Sen. John Cornyn, R-Texas, inserted language into the final tax bill that would enrich three different constituencies: fossil fuel firms, Republicans’ major campaign donors and a handful of Cornyn’s GOP congressional colleagues including Texas Sen. Ted Cruz and two other Texas lawmakers in the House. Cornyn originally added the language in an amendment to the Senate bill at the same time his former chief of staff was lobbying both the House and Senate on the tax treatment for those same oil and gas partnerships.

The MLP amendment, which delivers a flat 20 percent deduction to the partnerships, was introduced on November 30. In the months leading up to the amendment, Russell Thomasson, a former Cornyn staffer-turned-lobbyist, has been lobbying on tax issues related to natural gas pipelines, records reviewed by IBT show.
 
It's pretty amazing (and telling) how the House passing the tax bill is not at the top of Fox News. "Hillary's Slush Fund" is the top article. Tax bill gets some sideline article quote of Ryan: "We are giving Americans their money back."

Well it's original because W said it about a surplus and Ryan is saying it about a trillion dollar hole in the budget.
