26. More nonsense

Again, the current tax structure really has nothing to do with it.

The OP is about the measurable fact that Democrats (many of them) passed tax cuts that benefit the rich.

The OP is about the current tac structure.

Your argument that there is no way to cut taxes without primarily benefitting the rich because of the structure of the tax system is just nonsense. There are more than fifty ways to cut taxes and the current tax structure does not force major benefit to the rich.

Bullshit. I made no such argument.

Heck the structure can even be changed if Congress passes a law.

LOL! So you're now confirming the tax structure is relevant, but it can be changed?

What the hell does that have to do with the fact that the OP is about the current tax structure?
