The top marginal tax rate the year I was born was %70...

NOW it is 39.5% for individuals making over $418,000 a year...

Trump's tax plan will reduce it further...

The year I was born the corporate tax rate was ~%50, NOW it is %35, (Though VERY few pay anywhere near that now) and trump is supporting cutting it to %21.

The year I was born the capital gains tax rate was %34.3, now it is %20- has that put money in YOUR pocket, Rob?

Tell me Rob, do you really think it is the POOR that are taking money out of your pocket?
