One of Cruz’s primary campaign points is the elimination of the IRS and the imposition of a flat tax. If successful, that would save Mercer $6 to $10 billion.

Am I supposed to object to the abolition of the (unconstitutional) IRS because someone named Mercer would save $6 billion or more on his taxes?

I am reluctant to cut off the nose of cutting taxes and saving money for myself and renewing American prosperity in order to spite the face of a political donor who happens to agree with me about tax policy.

I don't understand the point of this post.

Heck. I would save probably 10,000 per year in taxes. Does this make me some kind of malicious force in American politics too? Oh God. I also have a mortgage with a big evil bank too. I see a lot of grasping in this new line of attack against Cruz.
