If I understand you correctly (not a slam, but your writing style is difficult for me to follow sometimes), I agree with a lot of this. I don't know about "Woke Corporations". Corporations are sociopathic entities. They just care about the bottom line, and don't really care who gets hurt along the way. Frankly, it's not their job to care. Their job is to enrich shareholders (and, hence, it's government's job to rein them in so they don't abuse workers, etc).

The "tax on tips" thing is largely a red herring. If you're in a tipped job, you likely don't earn enough to pay any taxes at all, or very little. The standard deduction would get all your withhold back (most likely...there may be some unique situation).

Child credit is nice.

Totally agree that slashing research funding is going to bite us. Our enemies (especially China) certainly aren't doing that.

Tax cuts for billionaires (and/or continuing his tax cuts from his first term) is just stupid.

I know you rejoice in the stupidity of voters. But I will go so far as to say that people get the government they deserve. (somebody famous said it before me)
