Why not? Being bisexual doesn't get you special treatment. It would be no different if a strong advocate for the war on drugs got caught doing lines on his desk, sexual orientation be damned.QuakerOats;1882087 wrote:There you go; attacking bisexuals now.

Well, if one wants to be technical, I was laughing at his hypocrisy (since he's a big-time "conservative family values" guy) and not attacking his bisexuality. I'd say his political policies was doing the attacking of that.

So the good reverend Jesse Jackson announces he has Parkinson’s disease just a week after he was accused of sexually harassing a journalist. Best part is, he was diagnose with Parkinson’s in 2015 lol.

State Rep. Wes Goodman (R-Cardington) resigns
Goodman’s departure follows that of Michael Premo, the chief of staff for the Ohio Senate Democrats who resigned Monday amidst “concerns of inappropriate conduct,” according to the Columbus Dispatch. Ohio state Sen. Cliff Hite (R-Findlay) stepped down last month after a female state employee said he repeatedly propositioned her for sex.
At this rate the Ohio General Assembly will all be gone before November next year

One, you should have to pay taxes in order to have your taxes lowered. And you can't really look at 2027 when most of the rates expire because it's apples-to-oranges.
Two, for most of the poor people the difference is mainly losing the health insurance they couldn't afford to actually use.
I don't know how the CBO did their math - I have a tough time seeing anything but tax increases on people making $100-$200k. A family of four loses the personal exemptions, but gets a near doubling of the standard deduction. So that's a wash. There's a little benefit in lower rates, but then they lose the deduction for state income and property taxes....which should make most net losers.
