    More likely the 'Anti' party. I see them as devolving into a rejection of everything that's holding us together. Everything Obama did is being demolished with gusto. Even our Constitution is getting a work over.

    Federal Tax rates and Federal Tax cuts are not different in other states.

    Gross was used to hide the obvious boon to Americans, especially middle-class workers, because it's a biased article filled with distortions and silly doomsday predictions.

    I have sold several homes recently to first time buyers who named Trump's tax cuts and his economic strategy as the reasons they were able to finally grasp the American Dream.

    Lava country, no coal here.

    But since Trump was elected businesses have nearly doubled in number in our small town, Real Estate has increased in value by around 30% in general, 2 long dormant subdivisions are struggling to build homes fast enough to meet demand, St Charles has built our second healthcare center, and Hwy 97 is undergoing a major upgrade.

    More economic activity than we've had here since the 80's.

    There is no economic "boon" for the middle class. All but the rich got peanuts while the rich got caviar

    At this rate, in 10 more years La Pine might be as big as my high school when I graduated.

    What a bullshit liberal lie... Obama’s 8 years in office killed the middle class... Trumps policy’s are giving people in this country the ability to get back to the middle class with all the job that have been created... typical way of thinking... more concern with how rich people are doing than looking in the mirror and focusing on your own life... not realizing that the rich people and corporations are creating the job market that Obama tried to kill.... not realizing that less regulation makes it easier for them to start a business... instead this mentally enslaved mindset want you to think it’s better to pay more taxes in to wastfull government programs like Obama did so him, the Clintons and there friends can get rich abusing the system

    Every thing Obama did?? Obama tried to turn this country into Venezuela... Trump is saving it just in time... Obama killed the middle class wit his tax, poor trade deals, and regulation... 4 more years of Obama and we all would be waiting in line to get bread

    Seriously, how miserable that you are unhappy with our country’s economy thriving with record a unemployed, record stock market, and wages finally starting to increase... you ignore actual results for false liberal narratives to complain and make yourself feel better about losing the election... even Trump hating CNN is now giving Trump credit for the economy... you must be a really unhappy person

    A lot of these are in Bend or Sunriver. I even saw one in Eugene and another in Christmas Valley.

    By the way, there was a con man by the name of Charles Simmons back in 1961 that started Christmas Valley as part of a con game. How do I know? My mother was one of his marks. Tried to make a mark out of young Lanny but I quit going to the meetings. When I quit his henchman got up in front of the group and bad mouthed me. I wound up being the only one with any sense and the courage of my conviction to withstand their attempts to bring me back into the fold. It was this experience that made me wise to Trump and his con games, e.g. Trump University (LOL)

    I'm going to have to count this as a personal insult.
