Whatever this plan is I can almost guarantee two things:

1) It not only will be superior to what we’ve had in decades and very growth oriented, and

2) It will be widely criticized as hurting women, minorities, and the homeless.

Are any of the other candidates held to this ‘be specific’ standard these days? Or just Trump?

Yeah, I thought so.

I think it's going to be the tax equivalent of the basketball "box and one," that is, a more or less flatter tax across all the lower brackets ("1-5-15") and a higher one at the highest bracket, with specific "loophole closings" for the "hedge fund guys" and the carried interest.

Kind of a modified Laffer plan.

But someone MUST address the offshore $$ caused by the higher corporate tax rates (highest in the world). If he does that, he would simultaneously bring in $2 TRILLION that could be applied to debt, and rejuvenate American business.
