    Trump's tax cuts took effect in 2018 and tax revenues increased 2018 versus 2017. Point of fact, revenues increased every year of Trump's administration other than 2020 (covid). Cutting taxes stimulates economic growth thereby often increasing tax revenues. There is surely a point of diminishing returns which some studies suggest is around a 20% effective tax rate.

    The United States is a low-tax country
    Compared with other nations in the Organization for Economic Cooperation and Development (OECD), the United States ranks 32nd out of 38 in revenue as a percentage of GDP.20 But it’s not just that the United States is near the bottom end of revenue; it is nowhere close even to the average. Over the CBO’s 10-year budget window, the United States will collect $26 trillion less in revenues than it would if its revenue as a percentage of GDP were as high as the average OECD nation. When compared to EU nations, that number rises to $36 trillion. (see Figure 2) In contrast, the $289 billion projected revenue increase in the Inflation Reduction Act21 still leaves the United States ranking 32nd out of 38 OECD countries…

    For some reason this guy gives off the creepy vibes of the people who are really in charge of everything. They pull the levers of money and power in politics, you don’t really know who they are, but there’s a calm controlling nature to them with a slight smirk because they know they fully control the entire system and are ensuring their continuity of power, and these interviews are a little bit entertaining to them to be able to present themselves for a brief moment in front of the public, in a fully sterile and protected place (Bloomberg after all, a media network owned by a fellow billionaire). Who knows the skeletons in these people’s closets and what they really think about working class Americans. They live in a world completely lacking in accountability for their actions and completely isolated from anyone with less that $50 million dollars to their names. These are the people who want the working class fighting each other so we don’t actually pay any attention to what they’re up to.

      What you are describing is government. I suggest you watch hearings where government officials are questioned. That's when you will see a great deal of smirking. Companies don't want to have lobbyists but if they don't, they are punished. The bribery system begins with Congress. Kamala Harris keeps talking about a middle class tax cut when you read the fine print. It's only for very small segments of the middle class. Many of us pay taxes so others can buy electric cars get extra childcare credits, get deductions on mortgage payments and so on. Hardly a fair system.
