So many freepers are in high SALT states and are in opposition to this “deduction” being eliminated or reduced. Most of these states are blue. Freepers should work to put their states back on low SALT diets or be among the first to relocate.

Massachusetts is trying for a “millionaire’s tax” next year (the first step in a progressive income tax which the state constitution currently forbids)

Maybe loss of the SALT deductions will wake the voters up when faced with that ballot question. Ah, who am I kidding this is Taxachusetts. They are stupid enough to believe the tax will always only hit millionaires!

Yep, a lot. I’m in a relatively high income tax state (Maryland) and a high property tax county (Howard) so I’m going to take a hit. But I’m for elimination of the SALT deduction as that will be best for the economy and nation as a whole. We’ll live and make adjustments.

We live in NYS. Own a home.

We support ending the SALT deductions.

Love your handle. I LEFT a one of the worst states, California (for Texas)...rather than stay there and bitch at the Republicans for not making the people of Nebraska pay for the our (i.e., California’s) TOTALLY CORRUPT government spending.

People, at least in the United States, have options other than blaming the Federal Government for their own LOCAL problems.
