No tax reform? It’s a great start to make taxes easier for most individuals but we shouldn’t be allowing wealthier people to pay less percentage of taxes. There’s a bewildering array of complexity that doesn’t matter to most individuals but only serves to lower the tax rate if people who can afford to take advantage of it

That and I think the "no taxes for 50k and under" would be devastating to the budget, if the median income for a family is around 60k then that's a fuckton of tax income that is lost.
