Hey, I’m an accountant too! And put me down as one of those accountants who think the top tax rate should be a HELL of a lot higher than it is now. 70%? Maybe. It’s never an absolute number due to the various deductions/limitations/alternative investments, but, come on. Taxes are the buy-in to a functioning society.

It’s funny: the very-wealthy people that I work for (the individuals, anyway) loooove Trump, but they are pissed at him now because they saw their tax projections for 2018, and they are getting clobbered! All of those limitations (especially SALT) really burned wealthy individuals. Corporations — not so much.

Welcome, long-toothed hatchling. :) About time you spoke up! Did you bring beer?
