2. Eliminate all deductions except for dependants and mortgage interest on mortgages of over $300K.

I don't get this one at all.

Why should homes of any price have a mortgage deduction? Heck the stupid deduction is one of the reasons we have people going into severe debt because they think they need the tax break. ... and as for dependents... why the heck should we reward people just so they can pump out kids?

People don’t pump out kids just so they have a deduction. Good grief!
