What we are seeing is this,at least a Trillion Dollar Wealth Transfer from mostly the three bottom quintiles of the population. BTW,that is 60%. First a 2% increase in the bottom two rates,secondly,elimination of most deductible items that most families use as a planning tool.
Most of this info has been discussed in Finance and Business journals. The Chamber of Commerce and the Heritage Foundation crafted this POS.
