[QUOTE="ShadowSD:1333561"]With charitable accounted for, though, what other deductions are NECESSARY that couldn't be accounted by for a rate cut - I mean I personally do like the idea of energy efficiency tax credits as much as charitable ones - but then it just keeps going, doesn't it? I guess it's just that the idea of simplifying the tax code and getting rid of deductions has been pushed for conservatives for so long, so if that could be traded to them in Congress in exchange for a rate hike on the rich and an overall monstrous revenue hike that got rid of the deficit, why not? From a common sense perspective, it is kind of ridiculous to have to pay someone at the end of the year to figure out what you have to pay, it's like a second income tax in a way - and a majority of Americans don't even know how to take advantage most of the deductions they qualify for, so the rich get the vast majority of the deductions, which then permanently distorts the tax discussion because it isn't obvious how little the rich are paying compared to what the rates suggest. I guess that's progressive reasoning for a conservative policy position, but there it is. [/QUOTE]
