There’s been a lot to distract from tax reform efforts on Capitol Hill, but for the record, former Barack Obama senior advisor Dan Pfeiffer is paying attention, and he’s appalled at the Republican effort to “give” rich people more money.
The Republicans sincerely believe the best way to help the economy is to give more money to rich people. Don't be mad, just admit it and make the argument. https://t.co/ZmbWnkHMKh

So lowering the tax rate on the highest income bracket is “giving more money to rich people”? Where did that money come from, if we may ask? We’re so glad these clowns are out of the White House.
"Give more money to the rich"
You do realize it's their own money don't you? https://t.co/YhdrbdZ97e

Democrats sincerely believe that not taxing your money is "giving" you money. https://t.co/M84mqZ28av

The Democrats sincerely believe that the money that I earn through my hard work actually belongs to them. https://t.co/B0u7NZyhsb

Letting people keep more of the money they earned is not "giving more money to rich people" https://t.co/YnujcwICWw

The Democrats sincerely believe that all your money belongs to the government, and you should be grateful for the portion you're allowed to keep. https://t.co/FHrglhRJ9j

By taking less of your money, the government is "giving" it to you. That's really how Democrats think. https://t.co/FHrglhRJ9j

Liberal sincerely believe the best way to help the economy is to forcibly take money from everyone, filter it through bureaucrats so they get a cut, then give a fraction back to them with strings attached. Just kidding, they know it doesn’t work, they just want to buy votes. https://t.co/zAn4Q0oUHi

"Give" more money? That's like the class bully saying he's going to give you your lunch today. https://t.co/825wYBOkdW

As liberals like @danpfeiffer see it, it’s not your money. Never was. It’s the government’s money first. What, if anything, you have left to spend after taxes is want the government “gives” you. https://t.co/xpsgd6G7r6

Okay.
1) It’s their money, not the government’s.
2) Wealthy people tend to be careful and skilled with money, and government is neither.
3) Individuals aren’t allowed to keep spending until the entire nation is crushed under insurmountable debt. https://t.co/xwA1px7jbW— R. M. Huffman (@R_M_Huffman) November 18, 2017

They do crazy things like start businesses and hire people so that they can earn money too.

You sincerely believe 100% of everyone's money is govt's property and letting you keep any of it is like "govt giving you money." Don't be mad, just admit it and make the argument. You apparently miss Soviet Union so much. But don't lose heart. Consider emigrating to North Korea? https://t.co/rQ3H2dibNU

Commies have always hated independently successful people as they are a direct threat to them.
Don't be mad, just admit it. https://t.co/0q9ihmbbZs
