        @HeerJeet At which point do politicians stop getting elected by raising taxes on the rich and eliminating them on everyone else?

        @HeerJeet @BruceBartlett Yup! Let the bizzaro GOP bring on its suicidal scheme of taxing middle class while cutting 1% ters' taxes.

        @HeerJeet They do run on that platform. That's what flat, sales, and VAT taxes wind up being, after all.

        @HeerJeet @BruceBartlett Sounds like no brainier but I've heard excuses for why the don't. If base supports them regardless, why change?
