All parties use loopholes

Does Mr. Keslinke live on this planet? Both Democrats and Republicans write tax laws with “loopholes” that lawyers use to allow millionaires and billionaires to avoid taxes which leaves the middle class holding the bag.

I had a patient many years ago tell me that he avoided more than $100,000 in taxes by lawyers finding loopholes in the laws and it “only” cost him $30,000. So he considered that a win.

Politicians write laws for people who pay them; and that includes both left and right leaning politicians.
