Trump wants to raise taxes

[Nonnie]

For every £1 of petrol (gas), we pay 60p in tax.

A litre of petrol costs, say, £1.10 per litre. There are 3.78541178 litres to one US gallon. So that's £1.10 x 3.78541178 = £4.16 per US gallon. At the moment £1 = $1.52 so if you paid UK prices for 1 US gallon of gas, that would cost you $6.33 and $3.80 of that would go in taxation. How much is 1 US gallon of petrol (gas)?

What is Trump's position or stance on reversing the Obamanation? Defunding PP? Repealing Obamacare? Rolling back tax increases on the middle class and instead, giving the middle class tax breaks. Bringing jobs back to the USA by tax incentives to companies that keep jobs here. Rolling back the legally passed via Congress stipulation that the welfare recipients all must seek work in order to keep drawing taxpayer $$$. Eliminating the EOs Barry has made. Taking Barry's nuke deal and shoving it where it belongs (or where the sun don't shine re: Barry).

I could go on and on, but seriously.....Trump taxing hedge fund managers is the very LEAST of America's problems and issues.

It varies around the nation. I filled up a few days ago and paid I believe it was like $3.19 per gallon? Last time I was in New Jersey (only like 60 miles away), I had filled up for like $2.79 a gallon.

Re Iran deal, he said he believes in honoring deals. So that wouldn't go anywhere.

Yup. $2.65 in Tucson. $3.99 in Los Angeles last weekend.

Then obviously....Trump isn't the man for the job.

(but I knew that)

I don't think anyone except the buffoons making the deal and their minions think that the Iran deal is a good one.

But what do you want him to do? Unilaterally scrap it? Is that legal once signed with other countries? Isn't everyone concerned with having a President that respects the rule of law? I know I am.

The problem is that as bad as the deal is, there are other secret agreements involved. Obviously, these little nuggets are sure to be chock full of bad news for us, and that's why they are being kept secret. It's pretty hard to make statements about something that you don't fully understand - and making statements without having the full picture is a sure way to getting bitten in the ass.

I'm sure that there will be a stance elaborated on once all the details are public. And at that point, corrective measures can be announced and put into play.

There is no end to the amount of disastrous policies enacted by this administration and it's going to take a hell of a lot of work to correct them and get the country back on track.

Not sure of the legality of violating whatever this turd is. It's not a treaty. I have heard ( I think it was William Cohen) that it would be difficult to go back on because we have to "go it alone"...
The price of oil should come down considerably so countries are not going to be in a hurry to renege. In a screwed up way, we have to hope Iran violates the deal without serious repercussions.

I filled up last night for $1.999 per gallon.

Another thread from 2015 checks in .... Your taxes apparently pay so you can be a couple of years behind up to speed.

Y'think? One thread to another with some stupid propaganda he stole from a 50s Cold War B flick.

I expect to see trade wars, foreign policy disasters, a few race riots, a decrease in personal liberty, higher taxes, higher inflation and probably, economic collapse. The silver lining is, secession will probably become more feasible.
