Publishing houses that rob their star authors to pay bonuses to their oft-underpaid and overworked editors and their bosses, using all kinds of creative strategies to avoid getting caught, while family-owned publishers would notoriously overpay themselves and their loved ones or relatives first, but underpay their employees.

Trump's Tax Bill proposes to tax people who earn less than $75,000 a year at a higher rate and decrease the tax percentage on businesses and the highest income bracket. All while dismantling Obamacare which the working poor need especially for their children's healthcare. Republicans are sure good at Reverse RobinHooding these past decades.
