Corporal: Your analysis on the tax code is as misguided as your analysis on upcoming political factionalism in Congress. If the Democrats wrote the big tax breaks for Big Business into the tax code, then why does Big Business donate 60 cents to GOP candidates vs. 40 cents to Democratic candidates (Neo's figures)? The answer is that if GWB is elected president, the tax code will indeed be rewritten ... but in a way even more favorable to Big Business. Yes, in the end, thanks to Republican tax-code writers, Big Business will pay about 1-2 percent in income taxes and hard-working small-businessmen like Frank will be paying about a 40 percent rate. And no doubt the Democrats will still be blamed for these tax inequities. The amazing thing about you and Frank is that you expect GWB to do all these marvelous things for the small-businessman. But when one peruses the record ... studies what GOP presidencies actually did for the small-businessman, an entirely different story emerges. It's Big Business that profits, not the little guys. (Hint: If you want to know who's gonna profit the next four years, follow the money trail.) Your naivete on some things amazes me.
