Threw this together pretty quick because I kept seeing different takes on the new tax bill everywhere. Some sources saying it's bad for lower/middle class, others saying everyone saves money - figured I'd just build something to visualize it instead of trying to figure out who's right.

This definitely isn't perfect and you shouldn't use it for actual tax planning or anything serious. I'm not a tax expert, just someone who wanted to see the numbers laid out clearly.

Would love feedback on any major calculation error or better way to visualize it.

This doesn't compare the new bill, it compares to pre-2017. You also have a simple form to fill out, which could be skipped and instead show all potential results on a graph or two, which would be a far better visualization of how the changes really impact people. If you aren't comfortable with complex graphs, just show a graph with income on one axis, savings on another, then dupe it for each # of dependents.

Of course, the major complaints about the bill are the lack of funding for health care and the over-zealous funding for ICE, so I'm rejecting the implied premise of this site, that tax changes are the major concern. They aren't.
