You will NEVER see a cut in government spending. But no one ever asks if people pay TOO MUCH in taxes. The usual assumption is they haven't paid their "fair share." Given our political terminology, one can expect never-ending government growth to the end of time.

There is a solution currently before Congress Known as
The Fair Tax Act 2007(HR25/S1025). It will replace all federal income taxes with a national sales tax. There will not be any federal income tax forms to fill out. The AMT will cease to exist. People will receive 100% of their paychecks. Visit
Americans For Fair Taxation for more information. Fair Tax ping!

Fix the AMT?
Yes - eliminate it altogether.
If through prudent investments, and by following the rules set down in the IRS regulations to the letter, the individual ends up with no net liability on taxes, then that is the reward for playing by the rules.
Don’t like that outcome? Eliminate the whole Internal Revenue Service tax code, substituting a consumption tax in its place.

To: Graybeard58
I never understood why it wasn’t fixed by the Republican congress- not the Democrats will use AMT reform to raise taxes on the rich.

Rush illustrates this on his site. Just do a search on "Taxes" and it's the first article.

Taxes: Can Congress fix the AMT?
7% Flat tax would be my choice. Not that I am against the consumption tax,
just think there may still be too many not paying their share, and relying
on the rich to pay a skewed bigger proportion. Everyone needs to pay some.
Democrats in the majority demands higher tax rates.
Republicans at least cut some tax rates.

What we need is an alternative MAXIMUM tax. And I am not joking.

Keep the AMT. It hurts California and New York and helps the rest of the nation.
