How much of the Federal tax flow last year was due to capital gains? That 24% will drop this year whether any tax bill is passed or not.

Tim, Alaska oil fields are not the answer, Saudi Arabia, Kuwait the Emirates are their answer. Their cost of producing a barrel of oil is below $3.......... even Mexico and Venezuela Aside from the stock bubble companies like DD, IP, AA and many other corporation suffer because of higher energy and oil prices. see Message 15521161 As to taxes there is a simple remedy to compensate all - there is a budget surplus? then the first tax bracket should be higher by let say $5,000 from today's level, leave every thing as is no need to mess again and again with the tax code. more surpluses well make it $10,000 above current level .........simple Haim
