If there are any republican commentators willing to defend this policy I'd love to hear their reasoning. This one does seem, almost objectively, evil imo.

Where are you getting this bizarre assumption that the average Republican commentator would side with Intuit here?

It's not a bizarre assumption, it's an easily verified fact:

A single lobby is not "the average Republican"...

I was hoping for at least a poll of some sort.

There isn't anything that verifies your argument in that link, FYI

Its a predominantly republican politician led position. Likely not mainstream among actual constituents, just corruption among the politicians. But if there are any who can defend the practice, I'm interested to hear.
