    Big winners in Senate tax plan: the wealthy and their heirs (exempts 1st $22M in inheritance from taxes, later all such income; ends alternative minimum tax that insures rich pay at least some tax). Corporations (tax rate cut from 35 to 20%). Cost: $1.4T https://apnews.com/4fa73e28fbf74377b65ba4a9434ec7e3/Winners-and-losers-under-the-Senate-tax-overhaul-proposal?utm_source=newsletter&utm_medium=email&utm_campaign=newsletter_axiosam&stream=top-stories …

        The big losers who pay for this: 13M who lose health coverage w repeal of mandate w/o replacement. Earners <$30000 who face tax incr in 2021. Earners <$75000 who face tax incr in 2027. College students whose tuition grants become taxable. People who pay state & local taxes.

        This bill is astonishingly immoral, corrupt, and damaging to people’s lives. The characteristic of this era of power is utter #shamelessness.

        I have said before and say again: When @Atul_Gawande speaks, I listen. What strikes me is that we fought a revolution to overthrow inherited aristocracies. Why are we installing one?

        I pay AMT and I am not rich. AMT was supposed to level the field but it actually hits the wrong people. Rich already pay way over the 28% flat AMT rate

        Inheritance tax is taxing money that's already been taxed....the 1% pay the VAST majority of total tax in America.....lower corporate tax encourages economic growth and job creation....

        Yes and not taxing inheritances is associated with higher inequality. Makes the 1% richer.
