And after refunds, the IRS collected about $93 billion more from individual American taxpayers than it did in 2017. Interestingly, that number stands close to the tax break amount that corporations received from the TCJA in 2018. Last year, big businesses paid $91 billion less in taxes than they had in 2017, prior to the new law’s passage.

That’s because the economy is booming 

it’s been well known that lower tax rates can actually increase government revenue

“I would absolutely agree that if you look at the tax bill as written, unambiguously this is a shift away from taxing corporations toward taxing individuals,” Gardner said.

Common sense is a superpower now-a-days.  They really have issues without having the "elites" spell it out for them.  TRICKLE DOWN BABY.

How can anyone rally against tax cuts for the middle class?  Or be convinced that tax cuts are in some way "evil"?   

Even looking at the creative writing in the article shows what kind of manipulation techniques it takes.

 

Americans saw modest increases in their paychecks throughout the year, but didn’t notice. Instead, as people filed, many bemoaned getting smaller-than-anticipated refunds or even being hit with a ‘surprise’ tax bill.”

That is a prime example.  "modest increase"  "DIDN'T NOTICE",  Smaller than anticipated refunds, Surprise tax BILL.   

Not once did it say that the actual amount the individuals paid as a percentage of their income went DOWN, even though it did.
