Today in this country, the top 1% evade an estimated $160 billion in taxes each year. 55 of the most profitable corporations in America pay zero dollars in federal income taxes on $40 billion in profit. It just isn’t right — and my economic plan will change it.

@POTUS People used to pay a maximum of only 6% tax, but if we went back to that we wouldn’t be able to afford to squander $2.3 trillion on a 20 year ‘war’ in Afghanistan.
@LastCoinStandng @POTUS We already can’t afford that, we’re in debt. Also, that is a terrible argument, counting for inflation the first tax bracket would start at over $80,000 and the second would start at $13.8 million, how are you able to say that the tax revenue was less back than than it is today?
