It's a terrible decision. Suggests the Bush years are back.

Your country is broke and the rich have paid very little in taxes for decades because they have clever accountants and can buy government policy anyway. The rich should be paying 90% in tax and be forced into exile if they don't. They have got away with it for too long and under Trump will continue to get away with it. The debt will continue to balloon, he won't be able to invest in America's devastated infrastructure, and the middle classes will continue to decline and shrink as the burden is all placed on them. You need higher taxes on the rich.
Not it isn't. It is how liberal democracies of the 20th century typically functioned. You taxed the rich so that everyone had a better chance and for a long time it worked very, very well. It came unstuck when the neo liberal brigage with its ideological ring master Milton Friedman came along with the crazy idea that if you stopped taxing the rich, deregulated markets and took away unions and labour rights, then things would magically be better for all. You know what? That has failed miserably and Donald Trump wants to continue it.
If you want a neo liberal society, then you are welcome to it, but you will drown and don't say I didn't tell you so. You need to hold the elite accountable and that is to tax them. Not only are they avoiding tax, but they are still making government policy for themselves and to bring everybody else down. Donald Trump with his selections so far is enabling it. He obviously does not understand the financial system or if he does he is on their side.
His picks are pretty terrible and you should be man enough to see and admit it.
