Make America Great Again: Thank you, President Donald Trump and U.S. senators, for the latest coronavirus bill. Although a similar project to help companies out was utilized in 2009, you have truly outdone that performance record.

It is unknown who authored this segment of the CARES Act, but on pages 202-203 of the 880 pages is a wonderful tax cut. That’s right folks, you heard that correctly. During a pandemic, one that has required serious financial intervention for business, when people are dying, hospitals are in chaos, schools are shuttered, and the general public is fearful, a tax break was slipped into this bill (“Tax change in relief bill benefits millionaires,” April 15).

It makes for good reading and a great opportunity to decrease taxes for the uber-rich. Everyone deserves to shake their head in disgust on this swift move by some very dedicated senators, who are in the pockets of the 1%.
