Don Taylor: Seniors paying for tax reform mistakes

Regarding the March 12 news article “Senior tax surprise rattles House”: I cannot believe that anyone in the state legislature could not have reckoned what the cost to seniors would be by not being able to deduct medical expenses! Do they not have parents, grandparents, elderly kin folk?

Yes, it will raise my tax this year, considerably, because I am almost 82 years old. Whether the decision was just coldly made or stupid, I will pay for their action.
