    Gets even worse than this. Jared Kushner's real estate company was all over that opportunity zone scam. Yes, a lot of the zones they set up are in really crappy places where poverty is entrenched. But none of the insiders who gamed the thing to get the capital gains tax breaks have any interest in doing development in the slums the act said it was trying to revitalize.

    Instead, they got parts of Manhattan, Brooklyn, Menlo Park, California not far from Stanford, and a few other places with decent growth prospects like those, designated as opportunity zones. And those are the places they are developing, of course reaping the financial benefit of the much lower taxes. You could write a textbook on government corruption from how this whole thing has gone down.

    Now tell me, how's life in the capital city
    I hear the corruption is rough, baby that's a pity
    And every man's a pundit, the takes aren't pretty
    I don't like what's getting back to me

    Now who's this Ukrainian I've been hearing of
    Bribery hurts the ones we love
    Did you start a website called corruption dot gov
    I'm begging you, please
    Don't tweet to strangers, baby don't you tweet
    Don't tweet to strangers, you know he'll only cover up
    Don't tweet, don't tweet, don't tweet
    Nobody, tweet, nobody ever told you, don't tweet
