Stephen Curry Responds to Being Only Person Mentioned in GOP Tax Plan

http://bleacherreport.com/articles/2742176-stephen-curry-responds-to-being-only-person-mentioned-in-gop-tax-plan?utm_source=cnn.com&utm_medium=referral&utm_campaign=editorial

The newly proposed Republican tax plan mentioned only one individual by name in its proposal: Golden State Warriors superstar Stephen Curry.

That particular section of the tax plan reads:

"The Tax Cuts and Jobs Act includes specific safeguards to prevent tax avoidance and help ensure taxpayers of all income levels play by the rules under this new fairer, simpler tax system. Our legislation will ensure this much-needed tax relief goes to the local job creators it’s designed to help by distinguishing between the individual wage income of NBA All-Star Stephen Curry and the pass-through business income of Steve’s Bike Shop."

Curry's reply:



-----
Don the Con has an issue with athletes of color and their salaries. Evidenced by attacks o NFL where majority of players are PoC and then to mentioned Step Curry in the Tax Bill - this is asinine.
