add $1.6 trillion to the debt.
and we bee gibb today with
treasury secretary steve
mnuchin, welcome, mr. secretary.
let me ask you a question about
priorities in this.
throughout the discussion about
this tax bill it's been clear
the corporate rate is going to
drop significantly, all the way
to 21% at the end, for middle
class they do get a tax cut.
but for a president who
dedicated his p presidency to
the forgotten man who ran as
populous is the waiting --
weighting here correct?
>> absolutely.
first of all let me just say
this is a historic event.
people said we wouldn't get this
done.
we're on the verge of getting
this done.
the single biggest change to the
tax system ever that president
trump is going to sign.
his priority alone has been
fixed a broken system.
over 90% of people will be able
to fill out their taxes on a
postcard.
the corporate tax rate going
from the highest in the world at
35% to 21% makes us competitive.
more important we fix a system
where we now tax on u.s....
