those are the only ways. it's got nothing to do with the stock market, president trump, or anybody who works for president trump who's listening to hill. that's just dishonest. the market gains that the president is referring to is money that companies make. not the government. companies make that money. the markets growth can have an impact on the economy, but, again, nothing to do with the debt. of course, unless you raise taxes, which the president says he isn't inclined to do in what he is calling "the largest tax cut in the history of the count country." at least stopped calling it reform. break down the president's plan, start with corporate taxes. the current corporate tax rate is 35%. what you call a statutory rate, what the tax code says you pay, but we don't chut actually pay . the president is proposing we slash that to 20% claiming that the cut would give americans a $4,000 pay raise. i don't know what he's talking about.
