Why do Republicans hate the middle class?
Middle class gets temporary smaller tax cuts the wealthy get the most.
Ending Net neutrality hurts the middle class.
Republicans even wanted to tax things like scholarship money and get rid of the deduction of state taxes and home mortgage.
They want to take money from public schools and send it too private schools.
Why do they hate the middle class?
Virginia Democrat wins recount for state seat by one vote, creating 50-50 split in Va. House. Unlike Congress, the state House of Delegates has no mechanism to break ties, so any legislation short of 51 votes will not advance.
A FAKE NEWS source:
Tax reform passed!!!!!

Yes the Republicans just kicked the middle class in the family jewels.
The donors will be very happy, our kids don't need inusurance, they will be fine, right?

Middle class revolt!

https://www.nbcnews.com/politics/first-read/poll-public-sours-gop-tax-plan-democrats-regain-lead-economy-n831231The Corker Kicker is helping to get the tax bill passed.
Republican Bob Corker voted no on the initial senate tax bill. The only Republican no.
He did so citing how it adds too much debt.
Now they added a provision where tax on real estate deals were decreased.
Corker owns millions in real estate.
He is now voting yes.
If Corker stated true and if Jones was seated, the vote would have been 50 no votes to 49 yes votes with McCain not there.
They are bending like crazy to get this passed.

Corker lies about knowing anything about the corker kicker. But he doesn't explain why he changed his vote after the corker kicker was added. Then he comes up with the most lame excuse, he would need an accountant to explain it to him. Trump and his family will do quite well with this pork. This was never a plan for the middle class republicans are thinking The middle class has a short memory and will be distracted by a little extra change from this bill.
The lack of thought and analysis put into this most important economic piece of legislation is really disgraceful. No transparency, no opportunity for people to have time to understand this bill reflects fear that the more people know the more they will dislike it.
The way this was down reflects a high level of irresponsibilty. Congress should be ashamed. (Not Trump, because he is incapable of feeling shame)

Ahem, nope. The reform the house passed violates Senate rules. In other words, the 'reconciled' bill the House and Senate Reputards came up with was illegal. Back to the drawing board.
Done not down

Pretty much
Nothing like some guy's blog to support your claim. What does the St. Louis Fed say in this older summary?
https://www.stlouisfed.org/on-the-economy/2015/december/wealth-becoming-more-concentrated-richest-familiesSince facts are a challenge, The authors concluded that economists have found that, in 2013, income inequality reached its highest level since the 1920s. They wrote: “Understanding the facts about inequality is the first step in assessing what can and should be done.”
https://www.stlouisfed.org/on-the-economy/2016/june/how-has-income-inequality-changed-yearsHere's more liberal fakery:
http://www.pewresearch.org/fact-tank/2017/11/01/how-wealth-inequality-has-changed-in-the-u-s-since-the-great-recession-by-race-ethnicity-and-income/Those dirty liberals at the Federal Reserve that shows wealth being transferred intergenerationaly, not by merit, as well as the gap between the top 10% owning more than the bottom 90%, has increased.
https://www.federalreserve.gov/econres/scfindex.htmBut, yeah, Some guy at a blog got it right and the Federal Reserve got it wrong.

Ad hominem fallacy. The data comes from the US census bureau and shows no increase in individual income equality. All changes in household inequality in every one of your graphics are from changing household demographics, thus they are irrelevant. You gotta do better than that brah.

.
And the census bureau published data and a summary that clearly states the wealth gap increases.
https://www.census.gov/newsroom/press-releases/2014/cb14-156.htmlSo, now the Federal Reserve banking system is wrong, AND the census is wrong?
This is about the time a Clinton conspiracy theory is posted as "proof" of something having nothing to do with anything. Or, keep digging that hole. You choose.

The increase in top 1% is only due to change in family dynamics? Are you really going with that??? At some point in your life you need to wake up and smell the coffee!

You most certainly are ignoring EVERYTHING THE REPUTARDS REFUSED TO PASS while Obama was #44. That FAR SURPASSED anything Obama passed.
