31. People who benefit from carried interest loophole must have paid her tons of money

hardly anyone is affected by that but they are fabulously wealthy. She's actually to the right of Manchin on this.

I hope we get the 1% tax on stock buybacks. There's a lot of that with cash rich companies who decided not to lower prices or increase wages, just prop up their own stock price.

Arizona is not known as a manufacturing state. Who lobbied her to remove the minimum corporate tax? She claims she's protecting manufacturing jobs.
