this current tax plan pretty much means, give with one hand and take with the other. it just sucks if you're next to the take side.

wait till you see what happens when your state has to up the yield on its debt because dividends have big tax breaks now. could see a nice increase in property taxes or other taxes plus spending cuts.

you want to stimulate the economy, get the 10 year treasury rate down under 2.5%. businesses will start to spend more and consumers can refinance when mortgage rates drop even more. the economy would start clicking within a year and bush would look like a genius.
