One thing that did surprise me though, was the thing about charity write-offs.
And you know, if the richest people/corporations had not been so corrupt about trying not to pay ANY friggin' taxes, this might not be happening. They really only have themselves to blame. It is greed. "I have a hundred million dollars, but I don't want to pay taxes, I want to keep it all. Fuck the person making 30 grand a year and trying to live off of that. Why is he my responsibility? Even though I did make my money on the backs of people like that."
