All you have to do is grow up, get rich, and have kids first, then steal the candy from them. Payback!
My point, stealing 1.5 TRILLION dollars from millions of people may be legal when disguised as tax breaks, but it is still stealing from millions.
Plus, loaning the money with interest back to the government to cover the deficit is compounded stealing.

What is trickling down from the party of the elephant is a huge heap of crap, immense national debt to be shouldered by the poor and middle class. Basically it is government by the rich and paid for by the poor.
