It's a bad idea, period.

Like I said... people who do odd jobs like walking dogs, selling things at the Farmer's Market, Fiverr, stuff like that... will face new scrutiny and it will be in campaign ads.

I hope it doesn't survive the final language of the Bill because it's idiotic.

So excited to chase low income people but piss their pants when thinking of taxing the rich.
