You mean the Republicans that lied about a tax bill benefitting everyone that in fact only provided significant benefits to the rich? The ones who cut snap benefits every chance they get? The ones who attempt to ban abortion in poor states knowing that the rich can afford to just go elsewhere. The ones who have opposed the obvious science of climate change at every step of the way because they're beholden to their donors from the oil and fracking industries.

Those Republicans?

Based on my occupation, that is not a true statement. Most poor people dont pay tax. They get what is called refundable credits. Thats means they not only pay zero tax but get refunds. Just another welfare system built into the tax code. I see it all the time, so dont tell me its not true. The latest tax law greatly benefits some middle class people. They now get the 2,000 child credit, if your income is under 400,000 married or 200,000 single. Previously many got phased out. You just cant make a blanket statement about the latest tax law. Everyones rates went down , but the payroll withholding tables were changed to reflect the decrease. so it didnt change the refunds people got. They were getting it in each pay check.
