IRS data shows Trump tax cuts helped low income filers more than high income filers on a percentage basis. A large percentage tax cut on a lower taxable amount equals less savings than a small percentage tax cut on a large taxable amount, but doesn’t tell the whole story. https://heartland.org/publications/measuring-the-effects-of-the-republicans-tax-cuts-and-jobs-act-on-personal-income-taxes/

Tweet embedding is no longer reliably available, due to the platform's instability (in terms of both technology and policy). If the Tweet still exists, you can view it here: https://twitter.com/foo_bar/status/1890504736291369030

Please note, though, that you may need to have your own Twitter account to access that page. I am currently exploring options for archiving Tweet data in a post-API context.
