THE TRUMP INVESTMENT TAX CREDIT THAT NEVER WAS

Here's what should have been in the tax plan just sneakily passed at the dead of night: an investment tax credit to incentivise corporations to invest in real jobs for real humans (not robots) and American humans at that (well, he did say "Hire American. Buy American" at his inauguration, even though Mar-a-Lago and Trump Winery hire cheap foreign labour and Ivanka's products are made in cheap Communist Chinese sweatshops on daddy's suggestion).

We didn't get that.

All we got instead was the greedy, unimaginative tax-cuts-for-the-rich, with much worse to come with Medicare and Medicaid.
