Every American filing taxes takes advantage of tax laws to lower their tax rate. For example, the standard deduction of $12,000 per individual or $24,000 per couple. Every person holding office has taken these deductions. And I voted for them, you voted for them and hundreds of millions of others have too. That's the element of you original post I addressed because it is factually incorrect in you original comment. The balance of your original post is your opinion and you are entitled to it.
