Since Cain’s 9-9-9 plan does not preserve the deduction for 401Ks

Good for him. I would also eliminate the mortgage deduction. All deductions gone and all taxes lowered across the board. (note: I take the max 401 every year along with a large mortgage deduction which I would lose).

I'm with you. Why should debt be encouraged, other than to make debt slaves out of as many as possible?

I'm also tired of government bureaucrats trying to herd everyone to their predetermined correct behavior. That's really all deductions, credits, and incentives do.

Then you would be very happy under the 9-9-9 plan then.
