You have been around these boards for awhile. Brinker is a market timer and an arrogant SOB but his politics are middle of the road. He is talking about 64% marginal tax brackets for entrepreneurs who manage to make some money. You can name all the dislocations in the world, but nothing, nothing will cause more harm than those kind of marginal rates. Any serious investor knows this. These are the rates that JFK, Reagan, Bill Bradley rid us of. To go back here now is folly. Spending cuts yes, tax tinkering and reform, yes including value added taxes as well that tax the big consumers but dont tax the guy who adds value and dont tax corps at a higher rate than they are taxed elsewhere in the world. I will work with you on a solution but no donut schemes please.
