The end result of that merger would be the formation of a black hole, the creation of which would release large jets of gas, which would then have been followed by a weak supernova.
If the joint committee decides, for example, that part of a balanced deal should be to eliminate tax subsidies for oil and gas companies or corporate jets, or if they decide to limit the value of itemized deductions for high-income earners as the President has called for, they can do that and they would raise revenue through doing that.
Notably, however, the Senate Democratic proposal did not seek to close loopholes related to private jets, the oil and gas industry, and the payroll tax burden of S corporation shareholders, as earlier proposed sequestration legislation had.
