The Trump Family Welfare Plan

Otherwise known as the Republican Tax Reform Bill.

It has been estimated that the Trump may get up to a $billion dollars in tax breaks with the law that the Republicans are getting ready to pass.

How could any American accept such a deal?

There should be a law that politicians cannot personally benefit financially from any tax laws that they may vote upon while they are in office.

To borrow a Donald Trump phrase: "This is a disgrace".

How much have they saved by planting their funds on some island? By money laundering? How much more do they need to be healthy and happy?
