I see your concern now. Companies could render payment to their elite in the form of stock, rather than wages- allowing the privilidged to escape taxes. Perhaps the solution to that would be to count all employee stock receipts as wages, rather than investments- since that is, in effect, what they really are. It's definitely not a simple matter- no doubt about it. Congress definitely needs to think through all the possibilities before diving in to anything. >Congress, which is not known for great intellectual feats< You sure got that right. <g> TW
