RUSH: My friends, it\u2019s panic time in high-tax, Democrat states. Do you know why? The Republican tax bill in the Senate would eliminate state and local tax deductions. That would eliminate a lot of money flowing into state coffers.<\/p>\n
California Democrat officials are \u201cworried\u201d they\u2019ll be big losers. They\u2019re \u201clivid\u201d this could force them to reduce taxes and make big cuts to schools and social services.<\/p>\n
Typical liberal scare tactic. They can cut spending in other areas, like Jerry Brown\u2019s multi-billion-dollar high-speed train to nowhere.<\/p>\n
In New Jersey, Democrat senate president Steve Sweeny says they\u2019ll have to \u201cre-evaluate everything.\u201d Earlier, he had called passing a new \u201cmillionaires tax\u201d the top priority of the new Democrat administration with a newly installed Democrat governor. Now that\u2019s up in the air.<\/p>\n

In New York, Democrat Governor Andrew Cuomo and city officials are worried that wealthy New Yorkers will decide to leave if the deductions are eliminated. Trump budget director Mick Mulvaney had the perfect comeback. He said, \u201cIs it the federal government\u2019s fault that New York taxes are so high that they\u2019re driving people out of the state?\u201d<\/p>\n
Blue-state Democrats have hidden their high-tax schemes behind this deduction for decades. Now their cover is blown! And the highly-taxed chickens are about to leave the roost! That\u2019s what they fear. The problem is, they move to where we live and corrupt our neighborhoods all over again. We can\u2019t win!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
