Dems introduce $3 TRILLION pork-filled bill, cunningly mis-titled

If you're a young American--say, 18 to 25--and went to a decent high school, you probably think you know how the federal government works.

To the extent they bothered to teach it, and to the extent you paid attention, there's a chance you know the way the Founders designed government to work:  The Lying Party finds a crisis they believe can be blown up into a weapon they can use to win power, by either scaring or bribing voters into voting for their candidate.  Next, the Lying Party unilaterally drafts an 1,800-page bill packed with "free shit" for voters, and even more gifts for the Elites, the Media, drug smugglers, left-wing vote-harvesting groups and lobbyists.

Normally this bloated, corrupt, 1,800-page monster is tacked onto a "must-pass" bill, like funding national defense or Social Security or funding the federal government for six more months, so the president of the Inept Party can't veto it without vast harm to most voters.

Wait, my bad:  that's what's happening NOW.  It's not remotely like what the Founders intended, because they didn't foresee Social Security or Medicare or Medicaid or AFDC or lobbyists or one party's nominee spending TWO BILLION dollars to win the presidency.

Want an example of how bills over 1,000 pages long fool Americans?  Here ya go:  Eleven years ago congress passed the laughably-misnamed "Affordable Care Act," better known as "Obamacare."  Obama and Democrat leaders and their media allies touted it as THE solution for rising medical costs, but one of the intended effects was to destroy all private insurance, replacing it with gruberment insurance.

Obama promised--on video, on 35 occasions--that under his plan the average American family would save $2,500 per year.  Ask your parents how that worked out.

The Obamacare bill was a mere 1,200 pages--cuz the scammers were confident that not a single American would bother to wade thru the whole thing.  And sure enough, only a few did.

And following the brilliant success of the 1200-page Obamacare bill [yes, that's sarcasm], yesterday Democrat Nancy Pelosi introduced an 1,800-page monster her party is calling the HEROES act.  Again, the Dems know no one of any influence will bother reading the whole thing.

Oh wait...Tucker Carlson did.  And found that the Dems rewarded...wait for it...marijuana dealers.  It mentions "cannibis" 68 times, beginning in section 110606, cunningly and misleadingly titled "SAFE Banking."  In which the Democrats demand...demand...that banks extend credit to pot sellers--with special emphasis on demanding that banks extend credit to minority-owned pot sellers.

It also rewarded crooks, including murderers and rapists, demanding that every federal prisoner over 50 or overweight be released immediately.  Cuz of da virus, of course!  The bill would also give multi-million-dollar gifts to LOBBYISTS.

Watch for the Lying Mainstream Media to tell you about all these gifts to special interests.

Wait, do I hear a skeptic or two out there saying you don't think the Media will mention even one of these gifts?   Wow, you're SO cynical!  Cuz your Mainstream Media is, like, totes fair and unbiased, right?

Here's my favorite:  Wealthy taxpayers almost always "itemize" deductions on their income tax, because there are a host of deductions that start to kick in for incomes over $150,000 per year or so.  One of those is a provision that filers can deduct from their income all "state and local taxes" they paid.  This deduction is shortened to SALT.

Among the taxes filers can deduct are taxes on their homes.  For people who live in a home valued at, say, $20 million, real-estate taxes can be $150,000 per year.  And if you add state income tax in high-tax Dem-ruled states like Cali (top rate 12.5%) or New York, and California's base sales tax rate of 7.5%, those in top income brackets could deduct a million bucks or so from their income, potentially saving those in high-tax, high-cost states $350,000 or more per year in federal income tax.

Trump recognized that this deduction was only useful to the rich, so being rich himself, and wanting to protect tax breaks for the rich (so say Democrats like Pelosi), he was determined to protect this deduction.

Hahahahahahaha!  You believed that, cuz the Mainstream Media has endlessly pushed that bull.  But in fact, a year or so ago Trump pushed through a measure limiting deductions for state and local taxes at $10,000 per year.

Whoa, I'll bet a lot of Americans are skeptical about that, eh?  Doesn't fit the Narrative, eh?

Needless to say, Democrats--who always complain before cameras that we need to raise taxes on "the rich"-- enthusiastically applauded this limitation, since it would mean "the rich" paying more taxes--something the Democrat leadership constantly SAY they're in favor of, eh?

Hahahahahahahahaha!  Just kidding!  Big Democrat donors were furious, and immediately asked Pelosi and Chuck Schumer to use their power to remove the cap.  And guess what?  Subtitle G, titled
"Deduction of State and local taxes," section 20161 of this 1,800-page pork-and-graft-fest, is titled
"Elimination for 2020 and 2021 of limitation on deduction of State and local taxes."

You say you find any or all of the above hard to believe?  Here ya go, sparky.  The whole damn text.  Take a look at what the top Democrat leadership is up to.  And all cunningly called the Heroes Act.

This crap goes on for 1,800 pages--at a total cost of three TRILLION dollars of borrowed (from China) money.  Watch the video below to see a few of the things they've done.
