>>>The last tax bill created and passed by the GOP favored the rich though -- yes? Surely you recall all the protests around that? (or maybe not as you are not in the USA).

>I don't judge a tax bill by the stridency of the protests, but by the results. Certainly the MSM that predicted chaos and disaster has gone quiet on taxation and the economy or at best grudging acceptance that things are going inconveniently well. Doesn't that tell you something?

The rich got a windfall and the poor got a few crumbs. The only people that don't have a problem with this is the few rich people and those dumb enough to be suckered by a few crumbs or stupid enough to buy into the b.s. they've been told by some facebook post or the likes of infowars.
I also will point out that the USA has a long history of huge changes resulting from protests - it's one of the great things about the USA as we're allowed to do so.
"Things" might be going "well" for the moment economically -- but uhhh this is one of those "oh yeah - hold my beer" moments. Wait and watch -- history has shown us exactly what is about to happen next.
