Ideally, everyone would pay less. I know people would bitch “oh the rich are getting a tax break” or “the poor are getting a tax hike” but it’s what would be needed in order to restore fairness in the long run. For now, I’d like the rich (actually just business owners and the business itself) to get a tax break. Anyone who directly provides for employment of American citizens (for example Golub getting a tax break because they employ thousands of workers).
