”Can’t understand why the real conservatives don’t understand this.”

I think most do, but unfortunately they are quick to jettison their “principles” the moment they become personally inconvenient. That type of behavior is precisely why the country has been on such a long-term downward slide. Everyone talks a good game, but when the chips are down there’s little to no real commitment.

Oh, and in before Mariner.

well, its something about a long standing tax planning tool that is now being yanked out from under us...

many of us are in our forever homes, and have lived many years in one house, but now, I can just forget about deducting the property tax because its a "states right" issue?...

so now I get to get taxed on a tax?....

and now we need to trust the govt not to hike the tax rates to increase revenue in a year or two?...

if they steal our deductions, they are never ever coming back....

The same people who believe a person receiving an earned income tax credit is subsidizing someone who pays thirty-fine percent of their income.

Without any reduction in spending, agreeing to this tax plan means more will be taken from you now and they will still banckrupt you later. Why is that a good idea?

Flat tax that everyone pays, anything else is more of the socialist same.
