    That and most people just do the standard deductions.

    So tax breaks mostly help the wealthy in mansions.

    It’s like how conservatives want to move income tax to sales tax. The wealthiest make a lot more than they spend. And when they spend it’s usually thru some shady shit where they don’t pay sales tax. Like claiming seven figure personal vehicles as a “company car” from a company they own.

      It’s way of dressing up expenses to fit our criminally low corporate tax structure.

      It’s a special kind of fucked up that the government is paid for by the poor to serve the interests of the wealthy.
