The scary parts are the stuff I omitted like the pass-through changes and other things that don't apply to most of the citizenry. Yes, the Republicans have gone from decrying the "tax and spend" Democrats to being the "spend without taxing" party. It's laughable their stated strategy that running the government furhter into debt will force us to be more fiscally responsible.
I've often thought we should just start over on the tax code. Wipe out all the historical pork and preferences. Set down a few prefered dedcutions and fix the rates at what it takes to run the economy.
Of cousre, that's not going to make anybody happy. Why should we have inscruitable energy credits and credits for virgin island hedge fund bankers in there?
