Democrats are lying about Republican tax plan, says Washington Post fact-checker

% of readers think this story is Fact. Add your two cents.

 Dorkhead.

Kessler noted that the data Democrats used to make their argument actually showed that taxpayers in each of the five income bands used in the analysis would see a tax cut, not a hike, and that the average cut would be $450 for 80 percent of families.

The Washington Post’s fact-checker said Thursday that Democrats aren’t telling the truth when they say the Republican tax plan would raise taxes on most middle-class families.

In an early Thursday morning story, fact-checker Glenn Kessler gave Democrats four Pinocchios for making that claim. According to the Post, four Pinocchios are reserved for claims that are “whoppers.”

“In their haste to condemn the GOP tax plan, Democrats have spread far and wide the false claim that families making less than $86,100 on average will face a hefty tax hike,” he wrote. “Actually, it’s the opposite.”

      A trickle-down economy, as from a 5th Plank lending monopoly, and graduated income tax, are still, technically on the spectrum of Communism, no matter how finely you split hairs or adjust the different, financial tranches.

      In theory, the values assigned to a hard, physical commodity, like gold, are completely arbitrary, and moral, free agents would have the power to issue their own currencies — mediums of exchange, with no more intrinsic value than Morse code or tally marks.

      No one side of this discussion is any more officious or histrionic than the other side. Neither is more fair to a refusenik.
