In the end through tax loop holes he ends up paying next to nothing in taxes.
The 6th,7th and 8th (The fading Middle Class) will pay the brunt.
It is always interesting to imagine a fiction of our own design, but you can't back that up with real numbers, and that is where the sad fantasy of a lie is born. There are, I will grant you, many eager to pick up a lie and use it as a tool-but it is a poor tool and one that shatters upon the first hard use.
I prefer reality to fantasy.
You do bring up a very good point though, as soon as we begin to treat various groups as different or special, inequalities begin to grow to dominate the system.
