Of course, since Reagan slashed taxes to benefit Donald Regan's corporate buddies, layoffs a-plenty have always followed a tax cut, over varied sectors. Giving the wealthy free money doesn't make them benevolent. They didn't get that way by being nice.

But hey, Creep-ublicans, keep thinking you're going to join that "Big Club" someday and pretend you'll do things different when you do . . . .

Unfortunately, that some is limited to the top 1% of income earners.

My taxes go up $3,012 per year. 🙁 Now, if those dollars we’re going to good cause I’d be happy, but they’re going toward funding the average $700,000 tax cut for the top 1% (note I say “average”, the top 0.1% pull that average up bigly. Sad.)
