7M unfilled jobs means tax cuts are working

Budd said there are 7.1 million unfilled jobs in the country, a sign that the Republican-passed Tax Cuts and Jobs Act was working. He said a growing economy would help save programs such as Social Security. But Manning said the tax bill gave breaks to the wealthy, exploded the national debt and put Social Security at risk. "Imagine what they could have done if their priority had been middle-class families, working families instead of big corporations and the ultra-wealthy," she said.
