SOTU

"For example, over the years, a parade of lobbyists has rigged the tax code to benefit particular companies, and industries.  Those with accountants or lawyers to work the system can end up paying no taxes at all, but all the rest are hit with one of the highest corporate tax rates in the world, it makes no sense and it has to change."

Excuse me Mr President, but lobbyists do not write the US tax code, congressmen do.  Considering your failed pledge to not allow lobbyists on your payroll, I don't think you have any right to complain.
