middle class. the american taxpayers care what they take home and have to spend. that is what i care about. >> he said he will not benefit yet the way this is put together that people do care about. >> let me take you with these other components. so you all talk about the death attacks and that being a great benefit the two biggest drivers is the farm bureau and nfib those been the most time lobbying law repeals with a death tax. that has the biggest effect. small businesses. wealthy americans into a

state planning they can use a trust or all sorts of things that our legal within the tax code to make sure they don't pay a death tax. with the at&t -- amt with a broad brush level one to -- one should get rid of the state taxes is is the biggest tax then it becomes irrelevant if you get rid of the deduction of state and local taxes. you're not looking entirety it doesn't make sense once we redo the plan. you are welcome. >>. >> as a follow-up question you said that i cited such as those seniors association
