Jasmine Lee: 作为一名华尔街日报的记者，我认为特朗普总统的税收和支出法案影响深远。该法案的核心在于延长2017年的减税政策，使现行的个人所得税率永久化，并为企业和个人新增税收优惠。此外，未来十年内，大量资金将被投入到边境安全和移民执法领域。然而，国会预算办公室预测，该法案将导致到2034年财政赤字增加近3.4万亿美元，同时还将提高债务上限5万亿美元。该法案充分体现了特朗普总统的施政重点，包括增加军费开支、强化移民执法，以及调整企业税收政策，结束清洁能源的税收减免。对于普通民众而言，最直接的影响体现在个人所得税率的维持，但同时也新增了一些针对小费收入的税收减免。此外，州和地方税的抵扣上限有所提高，但部分福利项目，如食品援助和医疗补助，则面临削减。税收政策的调整将在短期内生效，而福利削减则会在稍后逐步实施。总的来说，我认为该法案在短期内可能会刺激经济增长，但长期来看，巨额的财政赤字和福利削减可能会对经济和社会带来负面影响。
