Any reduction in taxes is a good thing. Period. I don't care if they decide who gets it by playing "eenie-meenie-minie-mo."

Money is fungible.

Selective race-based "reduction in taxes" for the selected race means "tax INCREASE" for the other races.

This proposal is race-baiting and pandering of the basest form.

But hey, it's a free country (so to speak), and you are entitled to proposed race-based tax subsidies for one racial group.

I hope you enjoy the results. Keep working, there are many families who will be depending on you carrying their fair share of the tax burden.

Taxation is not a zero-sum game, or at least it need not be. If Keyes or anyone else proposed INCREASING another group's taxes in order to "offset" the reduction granted to descendents of slaves, I'd oppose it vehemently.

You're buying into the Democrat lie that taxes are zero-sum, that a reduction in taxes for, say, the "wealthiest 1%" amounts to an increase for everyone else.
