240. You're correct. We're being gamed right now. Things that benefit
the middle and lower class helping make or keep life affordable enough to make a diffrence so people can make a difference and their children get opportunities is being sacrificed for the top. The top will say they are for "fair" or flatter taxes that spur growth, but a 3 or 4 % cut at the billionaire level is a whole lot of money to take out of our revenue system where a 3 or 4 % cut at levels below $100,000, not so much. We're canabalizing our institutions and making them more costly.
