I’m a conservative, but Trump tax hike is taking food off my table. He ain’t no friend of labor.. that’s what we, pilots, all are, we know that, right???

The GOP is now the tax and spend party. I no longer vote for them. But unfortunately one of them got elected who raised taxes on myself and many others, then increased discretionary spending 15% last year, while collecting less revenue overall.

For the few things it must do, should be funded by user fees.
