Didnt Trump pound his big fat paws about this theft over and over and over to get elected?
Anyone know what the progress of this important change is from our twitter friend?
Carried Interest

Yeah I think the topic goes over the heads of most on here. If someone makes a thread about Trump and twitter or how some DEM is in the media, there will be 50 replies but a serious campaign promise costing the little guy billions a year will not even be a bother.
This carried interest loophole is theft..its outright theft and no other way to put it. Money managers are able to only pay taxes on profits at the rate implying they are actually trading their own account and their money is at risk, when it is not. They are performing a job in which they are compensated by their investors. How we allow this is obscene...irregardless of the party or the person this has to stop.

Yeah he ran his yapper many times on this topic, before he got in office. Its easy to say I will do this I will do that when you are not part of the money grubbing process...and Trump has fallen flat on his face when it comes to promises. He LOVES to make them and abuse other politicians for not doing things yet he has been terrible at execution of promises.
This loophole is a joke, it is pure lobbyist theft...nothing else.

That makes no sense...
Your example is a net drain on the budget, that costs the middle class and lower class taxpayer, just as his moronic freebie to offshore money...removing the carried interest loophole is budget POSITIVE...it means the elite pay more, the total they should and not get a 10% benefit from cheating. Carried interest...what a joke they are not trading for their own account and personal funds.

Wall, please tell me what a lower class taxpayer looks like? There's no such thing. The people at the lower end pay not taxes, get free healthcare, EBT cards, rent assistance, utility assistance... It's not realistic for Trump to demand the Carried Interest issue be included in the tax bill or he wasn't going to sign it.
I figure if the conservatives get 60% of what they could possibly get out of Trump, its better than the negative number crooked Hillary would've achieved.
And Goose, with all due respect, a lot of people work for the corporate fuks, there's no way around big corporations, it's the cost of doing business. Trump is getting results, we're not going to get it all.

The lower class have no power, no wealth, no savings, no future. So all the scraps you mentioned are nothing compared to the billions being lost on this carried interest scam and many others like it.
I dont like how you guys ignore all the lies and promises never kept and his cheating abusive personality all so your conservative agenda goes forward. It is disgusting and harmful to this country that the agenda matters more than the person.
I didnt mention Clinton or Obama...I am keeping on point, on topic and I think that seems to be a challenge for your demographic.

Well you're right Walls...not much more to say on it...Bush, Obama, and Trump all wanted it gone. But its still there. We know why.
Paul Singer (look him up), my guess is he told Trump he'd make life even more miserable than it is already is for him, if he kept on with it...Paul Ryan was asked about it the week of the big tax overhaul. He literally answered a different question without hesitation. I think that says something.

Hmmm,
I'm sure Oprah, Jay-Z, P-Diddy, etc. would beg to differ with your opinion - - If it didn't mean they would lose all their "customers", and could talk to you over their mountains of $$$$$$$.....

Well you know we see eye to eye on the why...but to me you know the issue I have...it is all about Trump and his abusive, baiting, derogatory way of talking down to others. The clips are easy to find, he blabbed on about it many many times. It takes a real person to own up to your mouth and since he chose to run it and abuse so many, he has to own up and shut up. Of course the money is stronger than the politician, that is a fact...and even the king of all is no match for his master. I would not really be as bothered if the guy wasnt such a piece of crap and so disgustingly disrespectful.
Sometimes the same thing drives me in this forum...the abusive, derisive, attacking nature of some people who will say and do anything without regard to others...I cant get past that and the case is the same with the king of all blabber mouths.

Name it? Pretty much all European countries including Scandinavia. Canada. Japan, South Korea, Australia, New Zealand, you could make a credible case for some South American countries.
Have you any clue where your USA ranks globally for things like life expectancy, infant mortality, literacy, education levels, access to health care, violent crime rates, incarceration rates? As usual you talk out of your azz.
A small elite mooches off the masses, your "middle class" is getting raped and dwindling. Yeah, land of opportunity.

Carrier has laid off some 500 workers earlier in this month, many of them were voting for Donald Trump last November in the belief of Trump's big fat promise to save them from unemployment. Now Trump is the president benefiting from these voters but who really cares about these laid off Carriers now.

Ahhh yes, we all know the heartwarming tale of the destitute immigrant who left his war-torn country at 19 seeking a better life. Since he didn't know anybody, and couldn't speak a word of the native language, he started out as a lowly dishwasher in a restaurant. Eventually through hard work and determination, he would not only own that restaurant, but would open a successful chain of them all across that great country - OF SOUTH KOREA..... 
Or the pregnant mother so desperate to give her child a better life, she fashions a raft and sails the mighty ocean. Half dead, and semi-conscious, through some kind of miracle, she washes up on shore - just in time for some fishermen to bring her to the hospital to have her baby. Even though it's a painful labor and birth, she smiles ear-to-ear all the way through it, knowing her baby can finally live "The Australian Dream".....
How about the child from India who has a tumor wrapped around her spine, and needs a very invasive and intricate procedure in order to save her life. So, of course, they rush her to only the finest doctors - In New Zealand.....
Are you sensing a pattern here? O.K., I'll leave you with a true rags-to-riches story.....
A poor African girl born to an unwed teenage mother, who was raised by her grandmother and grew up in extreme poverty - eventually becomes a multi-billionaire C.E.O. and a worldwide media mogul. She is so beloved, that she is now the front-runner to become the next leader of her country!!
WOW!!!!
What country is that?
Oh sorry, That's Oprah Winfrey!!!!!
How about every single Canadian celebrity you've ever heard of??? With their palatial estates they build..... In Saskatoon.....

Europa, I believe you misunderstood the topic .. ...It is not about Carriers interest ,,but carried interest.
Basically the loophole that allows hedge fund profits to be taxed at a lower rate ...This loophole is very hard to close ..due to lobbyist in Congress.
Candidate Trump campaigned on a plan to abolish the tax break loophole for hedge-fund managers..but failed This loophole is so hard to change, that even fmr.President Barack Obama who campaigned on it before both of his elections couldn't pull off either ..

There are 6 yr olds who have a better grasp of the world than you. You're a hopeless case, like so many on here. I'm glad I don't have to put up with you in real life.
