3. Doesn't everyone remember that we did this under Reagan?

Lowered top tax rates by supposedly taking away loopholes.

However, more loopholes were then promoted by lobbyists and enacted into law by Congress and the President(s).

So now, we're going to do it again?

It's just another way to lower the top tax rate and the loophole shit will start all over again.
