Episode 11-Trump’s 2017 Tax Cuts: Who Really Benefited?

Did Trump’s 2017 Tax Cuts really help working Americans — or just the wealthy elite? In this episode of Zero Distortion, host Russ Bates breaks down the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act of 2017, what was promised, and who actually benefited. We analyze the real impact of the 2017 Trump tax law, including: How much the top 1% of earners gained from the tax cuts What middle-class families actually received Whether the law “paid for itself” or ballooned the national debt How foreign investors profited while the poorest Americans got crumbs With data from the Institute on Taxation and Economic Policy (ITEP) and insights from inside the energy and clean energy sectors, Russ breaks through the political spin to deliver the facts.
