Yes, because right now they say one thing but do the other. Would your rather they deceive than saying nothing?

  What is the other thing they're doing? Nothing I've seen in their tax bills affects average americans

    One example is taxing the billionaire. They are telling shouting shaming. Then, Dems will actually tax salaried employees who earn more 400k a year. Now this doesn't impact average American, sure. But they could have been upfront about taxing salaried employees. Another example is exactly this news. They are shaming yelling at the companies for not paying more tax. Yet they don't codify the tax law to get companies to pay more tax. Based on their yelling, they could have just added "no double Irish practice" into the tax law. No? There are many similar laws that handle extreme complex situation like "no money laundering", "no market manipulation". It's not perfect, but we still manage to handle them. At best, Dems are misleading the public. My guess is that they can't close that loophole without negative impact on other areas. But Dems never explain this at all. They try hard to say companies are evil. Yet they are the ones with power who do nothing. This is like you starting a new job, and nobody codifies your responsibility, and you are constantly yelled at for not fulfilling your obligation. Sure, Dems is the lesser of the two evils when comparing to Republicans. But let's not act like they are not deceptive here.
