<<Now there is talk of giving a tax break to folks with losing positions, something along the lines of those with capital losses can be written off at up to $20,000 a year vs the current $3,000>>

Wouldn't this be short-term bearish, as it could lead to some selling between now and year end to lock in those paper losses? If I were running for office this fall, I'd think twice about enacting this before the election.
