A former 40 year Atheist analyzes Atheism, without resorting to theism, deism, or fantasy. *** If You Don't Value Truth, Then What DO You Value? *** If we say that the sane can be coaxed and persuaded to rationality, and we say that rationality presupposes logic, then what can we say of those who actively reject logic? *** Atheists have an obligation to give reasons in the form of logic and evidence for rejecting Theist theories.
Service cuts affect them more, tax cuts affect them less
They benefit more from wellfare, on average, and already pay less taxes on average and will thus get much less benefits, if any, from tax cuts. Especially after several years should the tax plan remain the same.
Gotta love those graphs and NYT. According to one graph, Hillary won by a massive, massive landslide.
The other graph gives no sources, BUT gives nearly equal tax cuts to all categories except only to 47% of lowest income taxpayers, and the other bars are nearly equal in the high 80%.
As for services vs. Trump voters, I suspect that service reduction, if any, will affect mostly Democrat voters. They have been promised welfare ever since LBJ. And under Obama, food stamps sky-rockted and have now decreased under Trump, not by coercion but by the availability of jobs. Blacks have the lowest unemployment rate in decades.
Less services are needed in full employment, IFF insurance rates can be decreased from the Obama run-away.

Precisely how will Trump voters be worse off?
