The AMT is the Buffet Rule. They're talking about a second buffet rule for an election, as it's unpassable.And yes, the code is skewed towards the rich. Look at all the credits this year. Alternative fuels. Hybrid cars. And other things that only 1%er libs can afford. Meanwhile things like student loan interest and whatever else has small caps, and the 1%er libs want to take away the mortgage deduction. As far as "There is a widely-held (correctly, in my opinion) that the tax code is skewed in favor of the rich. And I’m not the only one who has this view:" Well, that's how dictators get fear out of people. Views don't equal reality evidence. I hear a lot from 1%er leftists that there's no such thing as islamic terrorism, yet a few hundred or over a thousand has been killed in the past 30 days. |
