I think the cnn calculator I linked to early would give you a decent idea. From what I could tell, nearly everyone will see a bump in take home pay first few years, but if you are in the 75K-225K area, you likely will see the least positive effect. (I don't know that, just the way the calculators look like)

Chances are your taxes will go down.

PM me your combined salary and I can tell you roughly.

Re: Tax bill

When most people see their first paycheck under the new plan, their opinion of this bill is going to change.

Re: Tax bill

Seriously guys, I am not pushing an agenda here, but you all really need to take a hard look at your news sources. CNBC's headline says losing this personal exemption is going to hurt, and then in the article they turn around and give an example of a family of 4 making $75K will see taxes going down by $2100.

They fail to explain that the loss of the personal exemption is more than offset by the reduction in the tax brackets and the pickup of the family tax credit.

75-80% of Americans will pay LESS taxes under this bill. You can argue with the merits of giving bigger breaks to corporations, or bigger breaks to the wealthy, and that's all fine. But when the news sources you're using don't even deal in even-handed facts, your opinions are colored.

That's why both I, and Paul Ryan, are extremely confident that American approval of this bill is going to go up the second your first paycheck comes through.

"Oh, you mean I got a raise? Why did CNBC say I would feel the loss of the personal exemption?"

Because they're full of shit. Don't read them.

I watched the Guthrie interview. He actually destroyed her. She doesn’t understand why bringing money home from overseas is a boon to our economy. She thinks it means more spending on jobs and wages. It doesn’t, it means more dollars creating investment earnings that are actually subject to US tax rates. Her understanding of the economy is superficial at best.

I’ll warn you too, same goes for you in this situation. You’re talking to an MBA Mensa member with a vast understanding of economic policy, well-read on the tax bill, and with a big dick.

The information you have, if you can even produce it and I doubt you can, is flat wrong. The tax rates will remain in place to 2026.

Wrong. Yes she slammed him ,it's not what she thinks it's what the GOP said to sell the tax bill and she called him on it.US CEO's all said they will not use the monies saved to create "investment earnings"..I applaud you being an MBA MENSA member and I sincerely don't give to shits about your dick but your wrong.


So you're saying all the links I put up are wrong,all of them.

Poor savannah...as someone who watches articles of incorporations such as safe havens as Cayman Islands, guersey and Isle of Man...she really has no inkling of what’s she talking about. It’s rather sad...”pass through” entities....these have been smart strategic structures to avoid a taxes of the us at an uncompetitive rate. This is what we are trying to avoid

Guthrie looked like a partisan hack. She had a clear agenda and wanted to get her shots in. At no point did she seriously reflect his points in an interview or discussion style, in fact she used passive aggressive and actively aggressive terms to dismiss and minimize his articulated responses.

LOL, wrong. She showed Ryan a video of CEO's admitting they will not use the tax break to bring back jobs or job creation,Ryan lies as does the GOP who went against their own voters on this one..The new bill doesn't bring money or jobs back ,companies will only pay tax on monies made in the US,anything made outside will be un taxed,you figure it out.

G1, do you think the sole intention of the Corporate tax rate cut is just to make these entities wealthier? Is that your logic and understanding?
