are you considering the loss of local and state deduction? :francis:

Yeah, state income tax deduction was the only one I could claim, and I've only claimed it in the past because I had other itemized deductions that made it worth it.

The new standard deduction is big enough to make that loss inconsequential. The reform on the middle tax rates is a pretty decent boon to me though.

I was just comparing the basic tax chart at the beginning of the income tax return. Of course, everyones situation is different. It will depend on what other deductions a person has. More then likely, people have kids so they will have less deductions given. Might be good for you, you may fall in one of those sweet spots. Most of America wont be so lucky

Fair enough, that's why I qualified it the way I did. If you're young and single and don't own a home, you're probably winning on this one unless you have hefty student loan debt.

This bill is not going to pass. Dead. Take it to the bank. Even right wing idiots are shytting on this bill when it becomes perfectly clear to them that trump is subsidizing HIS tax cuts by killing off various deductions that we've all come to know and love.

I haven't checked the conservative think tanks but I doubt many of them even support this bill albeit the love the corporate handouts I'm sure
