In 1981, when Reagan's’ supply-side tax cuts began a forty-five-year upward transfer of over $50 trillion in wealth that made billionaires richer while it hollowed out our nation’s Treasury. They stole $38 trillion from our government, and another $12 trillion (at least) from working class families via wage freezes and the destruction of unions. Ever since 1981,when our national debt was less than a trillion dollars, Republicans have eagerly slashed taxes for their Epstein-class billionaire donors and cynically blamed teachers, seniors, and working families for the red ink.
