Please spare us the fake outrage, Sen. Hatch. I can’t believe how eager you are to vote for a bill that, for example, eliminates a tax benefit for a teacher to buy classroom supplies while giving a $2 billion tax break to the family of the secretary of education.
On top of that, you use your own story to talk about how this somehow benefits working-class people. As a reminder, the top marginal tax rate during the time period you referenced was 91 percent, which undoubtedly helped you and thousands of others move upward in the economy by preventing an American aristocracy.
