That total includes Biden's "billionaire tax," which would impose a 25% minimum tax on individuals with wealth of over $100 million. The Treasury estimated it would raise $502 billion over the decade.

    Did this get passed though?

    What Biden actually accomplished is locked in half of the trump 1 tax cuts for the rich and corporations. They were all supposed to expire, but Biden let them keep $1.5 Trillion of cuts. It’s important to understand that this keeps actual corpo tax rates, after all the loopholes, at about 11-12% for the most profitable companies in the world.

    Now Trump is doing another $3T in cuts, just as soon as those pesky democrats stop complaining about Epstein files and return to the office.
