Jesus spoke to the crowds and to his disciples,
saying, “The scribes and the Pharisees have taken their seat
on the chair of Moses. Therefore, do and observe all things
whatsoever they tell you, but do not follow their example. For they preach but
they do not practice. They
tie up heavy burdens and lay them on people’s shoulders, but they will not lift
a finger to move them. All their works
are performed to be seen. They widen their phylacteries and lengthen their
tassels. They love places of honor at banquets, seats of honor in synagogues, greetings in
marketplaces, and the salutation ‘Rabbi.’ As for you, do not be
called ‘Rabbi.’ You have but one teacher, and you are all
brothers. Call no one on earth your father; you have but one Father in heaven. Do not be called ‘Master’; you have but one
master, the Messiah. The greatest among you must be your
servant. Whoever exalts himself will be
humbled; but whoever humbles himself will be exalted.
Trump spoke to the crowds
and his followers saying, “The Democrats and the Republicans have taken their
seats in Congress, the seat of government. Therefore, do and observe all that
they tell you, but do not believe a word that they say. They preach but they do not practice what
they preach. They place heavy tax burdens on the backs of the working class,
and they will not lift a finger to reduce them.
All their works are performed to make them look good. They care only about themselves and their
bank accounts; and whether or not they will get re-elected. They love places in
the news media that promotes their false image, and the salutation
‘Congressman’. As for you, you cannot
have such honor. You have but one
choice, and you are all equally disenfranchised whether your name is followed
by a D or an R. Call no one on earth
your honor; for the current crop of politicians by their very nature are
dishonorable. Do not be called ‘Master’
for you have but one master, the Christ.
The greatest among you must be your servant. Whoever exalts himself will
be humbled; but whoever humbles himself will be exalted.” ~ Your humble servant
Donald Trump.

There's things about the "tax reform" bill, that worries me. True tax reform would include an end to the IRS.
