This tax reform bill is a major win for Trump and a major win for old style neo-conservative policy wonkdom.
Rates are redefined and cut, the corporate tax rate is cut, much of the code is simplified.
But we love the extra goodies. This includes opening up the Arctic Wildlife Refuge to oil exploration and most importantly the repeal of the Obamacare Individual Mandate. As far as the rest of Obamacare goes, that's policy and I don't really give a fuck.
The mandate was as vile as the Indian Removal Act or the Fugitive Slave Act, a law that redefined the relationship between state and citizen. Now it's history.
Winning
