they still allow vacation home mortgage interest to be deducted, don't they?.....and that used to include any large boat with living quarters or motor home......eliminate that first.....

then charge bussinessmen for all frequent flyer miles they are awarded when they travel for their companies....they mount up to many thousands of dollars NOT taxed that should be....

Everyone should be taxed on the same basis. This business of deductions, and credits; of tax brackets based on “earned” income; of distinguishing between earned and unearned income; of rich and poor; of them verus us; etc.....All of it gives the ruling class a wedge to divide the citizens so that they can tax certain groups based on whatever the current agenda happens to be.

A tax for thee and not for me.
