Striped bars below = a different, larger measure: the top 1% and top 0.1%'s tax cut from the 2025 law alone (Tax Policy Center), not the combined deciles above. Drawn to the same dollar scale as the bars above — scroll right to see how far they run.
Top 1%≈ +$75,000
Top 0.1% ($5M+)≈ +$300,000

Every bar is drawn to the same dollar scale. Scroll right → the striped bars run far past the edge.

Decile bars: Yale Budget Lab, combined effects of the 2025 law and 2025 tariffs, average change in household resources per year, 2026–2034 (August 2025 estimates; tariff rates have shifted since — the shape has not). Top 1% / 0.1% bars: Tax Policy Center, average 2026 tax change from the law alone — a different measure, marked with hatching. And none of this counts the interest on the borrowing that paid for it — $970 billion a year, money spent servicing debt, not on anything.
