Millions of people - mostly upper middle and many of them Republicans - will have to pay more in taxes because state and local deductions are eliminated. Why shouldn’t they complain? The GOP claims to be the small govt party, but it’s raising taxes on many people - including many Republicans!!!!

And some of them are FReepers. The SALT limitation is severe enough to more and offset the lowered tax rates in many cases.

I think this should be taken up with the state and local tax entities. Why should we all cover state and local deductions through federal taxes?

We live in NYS. We own a home. We think SALT deductions should go. Why should our fellow citizens subsidize the profligacy of our state and local pols?
