WRT the AMT, let me ask you something.

I'm not proposing any fix for AMT, and I barely have time to discuss this one obvious fallacy with the FairTax. Just because I know this plan is being misrepresented, doesn't mean I've got to suggest an alternative.

"No, I think tax rate reductions, coupled with the removal of death taxes and AMT would accomplish all of these goals."

"I'm not proposing any fix for AMT, and I barely have time to discuss this one obvious fallacy with the FairTax. Just because I know this plan is being misrepresented, doesn't mean I've got to suggest an alternative."

You suggested 3 alternatives to the FairTax, all of which are revenue negative, and all you want to discuss is the "one obvious fallacy" of the FairTax? Must be nice. You don't have to concern yourself with the major economic problems which are exacerbated by our current awful tax system, nor a workable approach to addressing them, you just want to talk about how you disagree with the imbedded tax estimates.

Some of us concern ourselves with solutions and getting something done about a tax system which is a national embarrassment.
