In GOP Tax Bill, How You Get Rich Matters

"In total, the party’s proposed vision of the tax code shows its focus in rewarding taxpayers who lawmakers think boost the economy the most.

“If you earn your income as a doctor, a lawyer, an architect, you’re not getting anything,” said Rep. Chris Collins (R., N.Y.). “But you’re not supposed to get anything — that’s how you earn your income. It wasn’t intended to lower the tax rate for a doctor, a lawyer or an architect. It was intended to lower the rate for manufacturing companies making widgets and employing other people.”

The GOP says its plan, if enacted, would encourage investment, hiring and growth by allowing owners and investors to keep more of what they put into their businesses. “The kind of growth you’re looking for is not quick stimulus,” said Republican economist Douglas Holtz-Eakin. It is “to raise the return to saving and investment, improve productivity.”

Early estimates show that about $1 trillion worth of the tax cuts in the plan go to businesses, including pass-through ones, while about $228 billion goes to individuals and $172 billion goes to estates."
