The tax-bill’s done. Not perfect, perhaps, but what is? Aside from its most important feature — lowering the corporate-tax rate — it repeals the Obamacare “individual mandate” (take that, Mr. Chief Justice!), and it makes room for further energy exploration in Alaska.
Better still, it’s a major blow to Schumer, Pelosi, Warren, & Co. — and if the bill produces real improvements in prosperity, the Democrats’ monolithic opposition to its passage might very well hole them below the waterline come November.
We’ll take it.

Pols in high tax states are afraid voters will begin to ask why the never ending high taxes, especially when the states are losing population…like Il, NY, NJ.

It has crossed my mind that given time, we would see a major population shift with the blue states losing people to the red states to such an extent that the red states would dominate election. Hence, the desperation of the red states to promote voter fraud and import illegals.
