Tax increases on the very rich have never had the expected results.

Tax cuts are not a really popular agenda item. I would rather have had a tax bill that raises taxes for these uber-rich whiling lowering them for the middle class and working class. That would be real populism and it would be really popular. Even normie conservatives are starting to cool on the idea of giving tax breaks to people who hate them and who hate America.

Raising taxes on rich doesn't do anything.
Why do we pay taxes on our EARNED money anyway. Its my fucking money. I should be able to keep it, period. Without having some of it hostage by governments. Have the government earn its own money, quit stealing mine.
