    Because republicans don' care about cutting spending. Never have. It's just something they talk about when they aren't in charge. After this bill it's something they never have to right to talk about again.

    While I don't really think the GOP (entirely different from Conservatives) actually cares about the debt, this bill has ZERO to do with spending. That would be the BUDGET; which is due later this month. The budget allocates spending; not the tax reform bill. One regulates incoming cash; the other outgoing.

    Maybe (har har) good ol' Paul Ryan plans on making good on all those old Dem campaign ads and plans on chopping SS and Medicare. Let me control my own money. A man can dream...

    And you've been winning a lot more since Jan 2017, whether you like it or not.

    And how is that a bad thing?

    After you turn 65 don't take medicare and get your own insurance let us know what the premiums are and then don't get sick or watch your own money go bye-bye.

    In the last two years we have lost my MIL and FIL to cancer, wanna know what the medical bills would be without medicare? Everything they both saved would have been gone and we are talking millions, I love cheap talk on this board and by politicians. FYI your 401k is not guaranteed either, remember 2008? It can and might happen again.

    What is your fee % on your 401k plan? 2%? Do the math on how much you'll spend in fees at 2% over the lifetime of your plan, again watch your money go bye bye at 2%, mine is 1% currently. Frontline did a great show on 401K's, I encourage all to watch it.

    The dumb-asses in Washington should be working on the BUDGET first.

    There been no policy change. One of the only reasons the stock market has been going so high is because of the promise of massive tax cuts for corporations and the wealthiest people in the nation. And now that they got it the market will continue to rise. At least for a while. And when it comes down (eventually) it's going to come down hard. And when it does you can bet trump will blame someone else.

    If the premise is that whom ever is president drives the stock market, what's that say about former Presidents?

    1. Calvin Coolidge
    2. Bill Clinton
    3 Obama
    4 Reagan
    5 Dwight Eisenhower

    Clinton and Obama > Reagan? That is if we are using what some state here(NOT ME), not me, look at your 401K;) I say bring back Calvin at 230% increase
