Dear
Congressman,
Re: His True
Colors
Are you a
deficit hawk? I imagine so. I myself am not, of course. I believe that deficit
spending on such things as education and the infrastructure is a better way to
protract the Obama financial growth period into the future. For all Trump’s
talk about getting back the old jobs, it’s the new ones we need, the ones that
address the future. And for that, it’s education, education, education…
As a
deficit hawk, you would surely wish to oppose the Trump tax plan, which
explodes the deficit not for educational purposes but to further line the
pockets of the rich. Trump shows his true colors in the repeal of the estate
tax and the minimum alternative tax, both of which provide a huge advantage to
himself and his family—his two overwhelming interests. I wrote yesterday to let
you know my thoughts on corporate tax reduction and the decades-long evidence
of the failure of the Republican trickle-down theory. Look where it has brought
us. The direction of the trickle has been… up! And it’s more of a flood than a
trickle.
We surely
needed no further proof than we already had: Trump’s rhetoric about working
Americans and those who have been forgotten or left behind is not matched by
his actions or proposals. His true colors are unmistakable: to further his own business
interests and those of his fellow-billionaires.
As my
Congressman, I ask you to represent my interests as a not-wealthy (but still fortunate)
middle-class citizen and oppose the president’s tax plan.
Respectfully,
Peter
Clothier, Ph.D.
