you don't provide me any good reason to do so. I look upon it as an issue of fairness. I don't think that one subset of occupations should get great governmental advantage over others, it's the kind of think the market should decide. The market favors big business with salaried employees, but the government favors business owners through inheritance and all sorts of deductions that they can charge that a salaried person can't. This creates distortions, such as about a zillion real estate agents per square mile since that is one of the only businesses that an individual can easily enter (except for Amway of course). TP
