I support across the board tax cuts. I do not support loopholes, deductions, and write-offs that selectively target certain industries, classes of individuals, or firms for special treatment.

I'm also not disagreeing that deregulation is (usually) desirable, my exceptions are support for anti-trust laws and for something analogous to Glass-Steagall to prevent debacles where people's savings get dumped into high risk securities. The point, however, is that there will be no capitalist economy to deregulate if the people and culture that make a capitalist economy and a constitutional Republican possible become a "minority" in the US.

I tend to agree with you. The only problem with eliminating “loopholes”, however, is that eventually, the Dhimmicraps will be back in control and they’ll raise rates — and the deductions that mitigated the rates are gone.

We should create some sort of “snapback” mechanism that restore s the deductions as the rates go up.

Exactly!
