Yeah I doubt the tax carryback notion would be in the works. But it still would be the quickest way to get substantial sums of money into consumer hands. And it would just be a "real" early return of their own money. Assuming they eventually would have gains again and offset the full amount of their losses in future years.

1.) Depreciation already is fairly liberal for technology items and small businesses. Some steps could be taken for items falling into 10 and 30 year schedules.

2.) If you don't pay any tax hardly now, what will a little pitance of relief help? Unemployment is just a short term fix.

3.) Yep.

4.) Inheritance tax has to go for estates under 10 Million.

5.) Zero Cap Gains for purchases in a 30 day period would help every investor.
