Re: "your beef is with tax rules, not the tax rate." >>> My 'beef' is with the tax system. Both rates, rules, and loopholes. Re: "Be specific about what you feel is unfair, >>> I try to be. Re: "instead of attacking Bush's tax plan, which is sound imo." >>> IMO, he makes a bad situation far worse by adding greatly to the insane complexities of our present system (instead of simplifying), does nothing about the high compliance costs (in fact, makes them worse), and disincentives to productive economic activity in our tax code... and because he can't face up to the loophole problem, fails to lower rates where they should be. >>> And, the back-ass-wards dividend plan looks like it was designed for the political effect (pleasing his base) rather than for a good economic effect. Re: "Like I have said, I have no anamosity towards this group (unless there is EVIDENCE of laws being broken). There is nothing to "deal with" except for the attacks from people like you on the President and the people that pay far more than you do." >>> :) You don't know what I pay.... Re: "You must really be steamed about the demo hero Bill Clinton pardoning the LARGEST TAX CHEAT in the history of the United States." >>> Didn't approve of the pardon, but I'm quite sure that the truly 'largest tax cheats' are still 'out there', and un-publicised.
