This is indeed one of the largest wealth transfers to the top 5% of the country.

Correct. Taxation is theft, so why oppose less taxation?

But from what's come out so far, it's only less taxation for the 5%. Taxes will be going up for others, especially those running smaller operations.

Define this statement

especially those running smaller operations.

Support your argument. The talking heads say

The number I saw from the Tax Policy Center was 80% of the benefits go to the top 1%

You know, if all income tax were repealed, you could say that 84% of the "benefits" of that would go to the top 20%. And then they rely on projections of future increases, which are out of scope, but they doesn't bother them because spending is moral and taking is moral, but not taking is not moral, to them.

Maybe if you weren't so covetous, you'd stop lying.

If that were true, then the article would be baldly lying.
