If Trump Lowers Taxes On The Rich And Does Away With The Estate Tax, It Will Be Business As Usual, Not Making America Great

        There is talk that the republicans and Trump administration will lower taxes on the rich and do away with the estate tax. If Trump wants to do needed infrastructure projects that will help provide employment, and at the same time increase military spending, how do people think this will be paid for? Lowering taxes on the rich and doing away with the estate tax will ensure the nation goes way more in debt. It will cause an increase in income disparity. It will enable wealth to be even more concentrated in the hands of a few.  It will ensure the middle class continues to decline.
         A country without a vibrant, healthy middle class cannot remain a strong democracy.
