      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.

          @realDonaldTrump, @SenateMajLdr How we will have enough doctors or nurses w higher degrees (NPs, anesthestists, psychologists etc) if we tax tuition grants? Such a short sighted measure will doom our healthcare system. #TaxReform #TaxScam

          Evidence for your conclusions? Don’t have enough Twitter characters for references? Think it’s easy enough for anyone to find them? Any yes answer is indicative of pseudoscience?

          Other big losers: any tax payer who thinks they are close to breaking even on this bill since they are incurring a large new debt to fund this massive give away - their share of the $1.5 trillion deficit increase.

          Already a shortage in physicians, and APRNs and will get worse. Making college education even more unaffordable will make the problem even worse.

          Not just college students. I am in an MD/PhD program. I will need to pay taxes on my waived med school tuition. My tax bill will go up by well over $5000. I make a $28k stipend.

          The House bill kills the tuition waiver, but not the Senate version.
