Are we to still have an America?
I understand there will be anarchists out there who will simply say...

Republican Governor Sununu shuts down the NH Democratic Party's new tax proposals before the state legislature can even consider them. Today Gov. Sununu issued a press release saying he would veto the Democrat's prized new tax proposals designed to make life harder for working familes across New...

Trump is touting his unrevealed tax reform plan. I have a list a reason not to trust him to lowers taxes:
1) He has flip flopped on nearly every foreign policy campaign promise.
