The Rich Are Being Pillaged, and Everyone Suffers

To observe that a tax reform primarily helps the rich is supposed to doom it. It should be the opposite: no tax reform is worth pursuing unless it primarily helps the rich. That's because the current system mainly hurts the rich. It is wildly unfair, discourages wealth creation, and punishes people for doing everything an economy is supposed to do, which is boost incomes and living standards for as many as possible.
