主持人：特朗普总统的税改法案在众议院获得通过，标志着美国税收政策即将迎来重大变革。这一法案的通过，不仅巩固了特朗普总统在共和党内的领导地位，也预示着共和党在国会中更加紧密地团结在特朗普周围。然而，这项法案也引发了关于其对医疗补助等社会福利项目影响的担忧，以及可能加剧财政赤字的批评。 Andy Sullivan：作为一名政治记者，我认为这项法案对美国税收体系产生了深远的影响。它不仅将2017年实施的较低税率永久化，使依赖小费或65岁以上的人群受益，还通过削减医疗补助和社会保障项目来平衡预算。尽管共和党内部对增加财政赤字存在担忧，但最终还是通过了该法案，这显示了特朗普总统对共和党的强大影响力。我个人认为，这项法案在短期内可能会刺激经济增长，但长期来看，其对财政和社会福利的影响仍有待观察。
