My God, what are they doing to the working and middle class tax payers?

I accept that these changes may affect working and middle class taxpayers.

Does that mean they can't be limited? Seems like a limit on property tax deduction would mainly affect the rich? Isn't the goal to tax the rich and lighten the burden on middle class? If you get more cash from the rich, then you can lighten m-c load elsewhere.

As to State and Local [[SALT), I saw a reputable reference to the Economist stating that 90% of the SALT exemption went to taxpayers with more than $100,000 income. Again, seems like the rich really use this deduction more than Joe the Plumber.
