Here’s a thread on trump’s executive orders -
I owned an accounting , tax & payroll business for 30 years, so I do have some expertise in these matters. What trump calls “payroll taxes” is the $ used to fund Social Security & Medicare.

1/6 Almost all of us have been paying into this fund our entire working lives. It exists to insure that we will have money and medical care when we are too old or disabled to work. When this “tax” gets cut it means there is less money for each of us when we need it.

This time of year I spend all day in front of my computer, catching up on my clients' lives & preparing their tax returns. I know how much they make, what their homes cost, if their children are adopted, how much they pay for childcare & if their kids are in college. 1/3 I know if they are charitable & which causes move them to donate, or if they attend a house of worship. I see their medical bills & I know if anyone is dealing with illness. I know if their careers & business are successful. I know if they have trouble paying their debts. 2/3
