Trump Tax Priorities Total $5 to $11T

Don't worry, the extra tariffs, mad growth from unshackling those repressed corporations from pesky regulations, closing the Department of Education, USAID, and of course the establishment of the strategic memecoin reserve will magically pay for all these tax programs! YOLO baby!

The top line numbers, from the article:<p>- Reduce revenue by $5.0 trillion to $11.2 trillion over ten years. - Lower revenue by 1.3 to 3.0 percent of Gross Domestic Product (GDP). - Boost debt to between 132 and 149 percent of GDP by 2035, if not offset, compared to nearly 100 percent today and 118 percent under current law.<p>The majority of it comes from extending his original Tax Cuts And Jobs Act, whose original cost was based on expiring starting this year.

It’s very confusing me to try and remember which numbers are measured in years vs decades. “Cost of 5 to 11 trillion dollars” without context is confusing.<p>Also lol good thing he found $100 billion in savings.
