“A tax deduction and a government subsidy are not the same.”

Well, there is the author’s first mistake... ANY process that reduces current or planned future tax revenues is touted as a subsidy by the progressives. Another example of them being still in control of the language of the debate.

Call them out on every instance of their BS. That’s the fastest way to shut down their arguments.

I’ve even heard a couple of Dem Reps and Sens, as well as Dem Strategists on cable news, flatly state that the Federal Gov’t. is subsidizing home owners by permitting them to deduct mortgage interest. Some feel that eliminating that deduction would add tremendously to the Federal revenue.
