Justin Wolfers: 我认为目前的税收法案实际上是一个反罗宾汉式的行为。预算赤字已经达到非常高的水平,我们本应该在经济好的时候存钱,以便在困难时期帮助人们。然而,这个预算主要让富人受益,而削减开支主要针对穷人,关税就像一种统一税,但对低收入人群的影响更大。总体而言,这个预算实际上会让最贫穷的80%的美国人经济资源减少,而最富有的10%的人会得到所有的好处。我认为,如果经济状况良好,我们应该更接近预算平衡,民主党应该提出他们自己对税收法案的替代方案。 Scott Galloway: 我完全同意Justin的观点。作为一名企业家,我深知我们在创业时通常不会考虑税率,低税率和创业积极性之间没有相关性。共和党声称减税会刺激经济增长,从而弥补减税带来的损失,但这根本是不真实的。我认为,我们应该关注如何扩大全球经济的馅饼,而不是像特朗普那样,认为经济是一个固定大小的馅饼。
