With all their deductions and tax loopholes the rich will pretty much pay NO taxes. The only people who will support the idle rich and the rest of everything will be wage earners.

8. Pretty much what is happening today.

Most of the Gilded are Traveling via Limo to and from every one of their destinations. Had to pick up a Grand Kid at McCarran. While waiting for her flight,noticed the Limos going to and from the Executive Hangers. Watched ground crews bringing a certain Casino Owners 747 up to his Limo. One of the Terminal Employees commented,yah,they are afraid to come into the Regular Terminal.

4. The "spirit" of Leona Helmsley is very much alive

She of the "only little people pay taxes" mold.
The only difference is that Helmsley's platform is being incrementally legislated, wheras she was convicted at the time for not ponying up.

5. Michael Steele of all people

saw him on MSNBC over the weekend.

Don't quote me exactly on the numbers, but he said that as of now the rich pay an effective tax rate of like 25%, doing the math with the new legislation it will be down to like 17% ...

7. It Will Be Less Than That.

6. What excuse did they have to keep the juicy loopholes?

Kidding; they won't even bother to explain this greedy theft of money from the public treasury. We might as well be serfs living in some alternate reality where medieval feudalism still rules in the 21st century.

9. Zero taxes will not be enough. They will require massive subsidies for their

corrupt companies to compete.
