This article is kind of jumping to conclusions based on a handful of preview cards. Certainly there are design challenges to making a universe with four distinct factions/elements/nations work within Magic's five colors. But whether this set has risen to or failed that challenge is still unclear.

They do, but before the bill they didn't pay taxes in years when their net earnings were $0 or less. Under the new bill, someone who wins $100k but also loses that same $100k in a year would have to pay taxes of $10k even though their net income was $0. This would push many out of the career.
