Patriarchy doesn't share power willingly. The multiple time bombs hidden in the tax bill are going to be a "take that" to anyone who's not a privileged white male. Millions of Americans will suffer, needlessly, from this resurrection of an outmoded 1800's agenda.

They want people who are browner, gayer, more foreign, or in any other way different from them to be punished just because they don't fit their mold. I think there are many, many people in this country who would gladly be reduced to a sleeping bag in the woods for a home if it meant people like them were worse off or dead.
