The Trump tax plan only works by cutting public services.

This incredible visualization combines the potential tax cuts (which mostly go to the rich) and loss of services (mostly borne by the poor).

Besides the difficulty of actually finding someone to open a case, who couldn’t have imagined that requiring an additional social interaction would reduce sales? People won’t even make a phone call if they don’t absolutely have to, ffs.
