A friend who is a tax law professor at a prestigious law school had this to say today:
"My advice to law students: If this tax bill becomes law, become tax lawyers.
The bill restructures significant portions of the tax code without any thought to how the tax system works as a whole. It will be a HUGE economic boon to the lawyers who first develop the tax shelters and exploit the loopholes created by this lack of thoughtfulness.
Almost makes me want to go back to practice 
"
(that smiley was ironic, trust me)

I just went back to school to change careers, majoring in political science. I thought about law school but every article I read says stay away from law.
This makes me think twice.
is the most blatant form of corruption in our recent history. One of the speakers during the TrumpTaxScam.org and NotOnePenny call today said he has been all over the world and has worked in government his whole life and has never seen anything like this during his lifetime. It is NOT OVER! Keep calling, use social media, and stay energized and focused. There are a few weeks left and the House and Senate can be swayed if we keep the pressure up. Booker, Sanders, Indivisible, MoveOn, etc. are working hard this weekend and want us to be catalysts in the grass roots efforts to make sure the public knows what the bill is going to do to them. They said, "The bill is not a win, it IS a disaster!". In fact, since it was passed two days ago new info is coming out and one difference is that the deficit will be 1/2 trillion MORE than they said it would be when they voted on it. Keep resisting!
