If it had been about Dominion or another GOP favorite, it would have been a-ok. The rich get the lion's share, the rest of us get the crumbs. For reference, see: Virgil Goode. Contrast this with the so-called 'death tax', or estate tax to rational human beings. Purely for the benefit of a very limited constituency. I wish I was kidding.
