Hear Rep. Bill Otto and "the Lineball Sisters" discuss during the 2nd hour all manner of Kansas small town life after these news stories.

Free Speech Radio News (30 min.)

Co-hosted during the second hour with Rep. Bill Otto, formerly of the 9th district, in the Kansas legislature listen in to conversations with "Traditional Republicans" who have lived small town life in Kansas across the generations.

"The Sunflower state's hard lessons pose economic and legal challenges for Mr. Trump and his party.

The Republican plans in Washington wouldn't scrap pass-through taxes, and they have other components designed to boost growth, including lower corporate tax rates and immediate write-offs for capital investment. But both Mr. Trump and the House GOP would open a larger gap between top tax rates on wages and business income than Mr. Brownback did.

Mr. Trump would drop the business income rate to 15%, below his proposed 33% maximum tax rate on wages. Mr. Trump's advisers left some details fuzzy, and a second layer of tax may apply. House Republicans would tax wages at a maximum of 33% while pass-through income would get a 25% rate, with no tax on later dividends as Mr. Trump envisions.

To tax-policy watchers, that looks a lot like Kansas."
