....by closing tax loopholes instead....
How the hell do you think our politicians got rich in office?
Answer: They made themselves “tax loopholes” and then used them for themselves while the average working slob was unable to get these “freebies” due to the fact that all of their income was spent on things like food, lodging and transportation.......not special investments designed by the Congress to enrich themselves.
It’s comparable to asking Obama parasites to give back their “Obama phones.”
It’s not going to happen..........ever!

I would argue the loopholes are mechanisms for securing campaign funds. Those desiring tax relief pay enough to enough legislators to pass the loophole. The loophole gets amended in some manner.
The congress then can get paid again to pass a revised similar loophole.
Loopholes are a renewable resource
