GDP for 2019 expected to be 2.1% growth. Bonds are flashing recession warnings by the end of the year.

No, it's just the end of a cycle. Two main reasons, the end of a cycle and the tax cut was not tied to job creation. There was no targeting and still no job targeting today.

Actually, whats going to happen is that our economy will stop the tax cuts driven boom in 2-4 years and return to normal.

That and literally nothing has been done to regulate the finance sector practice that caused the last recession. Wages are still crap, healthcare costs are still a major drain on everyone, the tax code still plays favorites with the people most able to pay for safety nets, and worker benefits are still being slashed.

But thank God we showed those lefty libs, eh?

Healthcare costs have skyrocketed because of Obamacare.
I don know where you get the idea that wages are crap bu I know from experience and from talking with others that wages and other benefits are on the rise as a direct result of corporate tax cuts.
The tax code still taxes higher incomes at a higher rate than low and medium incomes. A truly fair tax system would tax everyone at the same rate.

I know the left want you to believe we are worse off than before but facts say otherwise.

Healthcare costs rose at the lowest yearly rates in modern history after the ACA was enacted. I'm not saying the ACA was the solution. Healthcare is at least twice the cost it should be. But, the ACA slowed the rate of increases. Wages are not increasing any faster under Trump. Some estimates show a slowing.

What exactly makes you think corporations give tax cuts to their workers? They don't.

You know nothing of the American tax system if you suggest the only fair tax system is a flat tax. Throughout American history only the rich were taxed until WWI. A very extreme progressive tax rate is the American way and what has been instituted throughout the vast majority of American history. Only recently have we removed ourselves from a highly progressive tax rate and all we've seen is an explosion in the distance between the wealthy and the middle class.

Site your source.
My source is that my cost of health insurance has increased over 850% since the first wave of ACA started going in effect in 2013. And that’s just the cost of my share of the premium (my employer pays the rest). My deductible has skyrocketed over the years too

As for wage increases, several companies (mine included) gave their employees a bonus as a direct result of corporate tax cuts. We’ve also received increased matching contributions to 401k and other benefit increases as a direct result of the tax cuts. Plus we’ve kept more of our pay check thanks to income tax cuts.

Your notion that Obamacare slowed the rate of increases is total BS. How could millions of previously uninsured people suddenly get health insurance without someone paying for it? I’m not saying having coverage for all is bad, just that we’re all paying for it - at least the working people are. But Obamacare has done absolutely nothing to reduce the COST of healthcare. Politicians refuse to regulate frivolous malpractice law suits (which is the main driver of increased healthcare costs). They don’t dare cut into their fellow lawyers’ gravy train and risk losing donations to their reelection funds.
