There is no good evidence that special tax preference items (for, say, capital gains...) increase economic growth any better or more then, say, direct reductions in the level of general taxation. None. That's fine, this may in fact be true, BUT I never said anything of the sort, you continue to respond to things I never said or implied... read my post again... I said that individuals who put their own personal money at risk to invest in corporate growth should be entitled to a reduced tax rate on any gains... period... I'm not talking about economic growth, that's irrelevant to my entire point... I'm talking about personal risk, personal gains, and personal losses... GZ
