I’d say two, in my opinion, are the carried interest loophole and real estate
tax laws. Both benefit far wealthier people in many instances than me and I pay a higher marginal tax rate then examples that are easy to find in both of those categories.

And while a much more specific example, bailouts if major banks during the financial crisis all while some firms continued to pay big bonuses and salaries is another example for me.

And an even more basic one that admittedly benefits me are things like 529 college savings plans - these provide tax benefits to people that are overwhelmingly likely to be wealthier.

There are a lot of them, but these are the most obvious off the top of my head.
