ACA repeal---TAX CUT for the wealthy [View all]

If this isn't BAD enough Rand Paul is pissed because there is still some Obama stuff left in. Hope you DIE tomorrow Rand.

But wait Rand,all your RICH buddies get a tax CUT when this passes. Feel better NOW??


"Higher-income Americans could pay fewer taxes, get more tax benefits. The legislation would eliminate two taxes that Obamacare levied on the wealthy to help pay for the law. Nearly everyone in the Top 1%, who earn more than $774,000 a year, would enjoy a hefty tax cut, averaging $33,000, according to the non-partisan Tax Policy Center. Those in the Top 0.1% would get an average tax cut of about $197,000."
