These sneaky bastards are trying to sneak through huge ta cuts for the rich and the largest corporations not by proposing nre tax cut but just by making those that exist today, but which will expire in 2025, permanent! This will cosy yje Treasury trillions of dollars but it will hardly make the news because they "are just making permanent" tax rates which were supposed to be temporary.
