Mueller report can't come soon enough

Whenever I see TV ads that are obviously self-serving for certain groups, I wonder how many people fall for them. Today, I write in particular of the business round table ad that's supporting tax cuts. Their claims don't pass the truth test.

When I hear the GOP talk of tax cuts, I automatically assume they are intended for the rich and corporations. Those interests use the services of our government to a greater extent than ordinary people, but they never want to pay for them.

It's so tiresome to hear their whining about taxes. How many times will the GOP try to enact "trickle down" economics. The result is always a big increase in the deficit. What in the world ever happened to the fiscal conservative. I for one am so tired of the same line being trotted out with the same predictable results. As for the Estate Tax, the Founding Fathers must be rolling in their graves. They wanted to prevent an aristocracy from taking over control of our government. The GOP would cede control.

Trump may blow up the world and we won't even need to worry about the debt ceiling fights, government shut downs and deficits. His need to distract from the Russian investigation overrides all other concerns for him. The Mueller report can't come out fast enough for me.
