Pence: White House, GOP releasing tax reform principles today

"I'll make you a promise: Discussions and negotiations will continue, details will continue to be worked out, but rest assured, we're going to cut taxes, and we're going to cut taxes this year," the vice president added.

Drumpf (so-called) Principle #1

Take all the money that helps people/processes and give it to rich.
