Where are the conservative posters that complained so bitterly on estate taxes on the State and Local Tax write-off elimination by the GOP. In order to cut taxes for the rich and corporations the GOP is raising taxes on the middle class by planning to eliminate middle class tax write off of the State and local taxes they pay. Isnt this paying taxes on money you use to pay taxes?
Why is this ok? And please dont tell me increased personal deductions will make up for it it wont.

Agreed the current GOP tax plan that they are attempting to pass with zero votes from the democrats was in fact written by the democrats. Hillary paid for it with funds from Uranium 1 bribes. Obama will profit as taxes will be diverted to his private account in his homeland of Iran.

Shitty, poorly managed states like California, Illinois and New York have high state taxes. They waste a fuckton of money on corrupted projects, teachers unions and illegal aliens. When taxpayers in these states are given a federal tax deduction for their inflated state tax rate, the people in fiscally responsible states are forced to share the burden of the irresponsible states failures. The residents of these corrupt and mismanaged states never have to confront their local problems as long as others keep footing the bill.

It isn't just people who live in what you call "irresponsible states" that will be hurt by this proposal. Many very wealthy Americans who have relocated to low income tax states still receive substantial income from high income tax states and are subject to taxes on that income.

It's Congress doing shit flows down hill. Congress is just passing the buck to states for they can blame the states later. GOP blame game is new level under Trump.

The trend is quite the opposite - States that take care of themselves by taxing residents tend to rely much less on Federal funds. California and New Jersey are examples of states with high tax rates and the lowest dependency on Federal funds.
New Jerseyans receive only $0.48 back for every dollar they pay in income tax, the fourth lowest rate in the country. Of New Jersey's revenue, 26.87% comes from federal funding, the 10th lowest in the country.
New Jersey has 3.82 federal employees per 1000 residents, which ranks fifth lowest in America, and only 1.78 civilian non-defense federal employees per 1000 residents, the second lowest in America.
Oregon is somewhat of an exception ranked 15th on dependency on Federal money yet among the highest effective tax rates.
