I wonder if the Democrats realize that it doesn't take a 'yacht' to have a head, stove, and bed.
Hell, I had that in my 21' Proline.
If they want to do away with a second home mortgage interest deduction, then do it for *all* second
homes.
Why do they pick only on boat owners?
What the 'ell are you whining about??
We don't get a mortgage interest deduction on our income taxes for our
principal home.. let alone cottages or boats.
No wonder the USA is in such deep debt.... no one wants to pay their
fair share of taxes.
Donnie, how do you define 'fair share'. Remember, we have about 47% of
our population who pay *no* federal income taxes.- Hide quoted text -

I would say that anyone earning above the 'poverty level', as defined
by the gov't, should start paying taxes. even if at a minimal rate.
Well, if I were wanting lots of votes, I'd define 'poverty level' in
such a way that at least 47$ of the population didn't pay taxes and
was beholden to me.
Thing is when income tax was introduced to "screw the rich" only 4% paid
income tax. Over the years, starting with 4% it has crept up to 53%.
And hidden employment taxes from 0% to 12-16% on almost everyone with a
wage earned income.
Thing too is the economy grew faster with no income tax than it has ever
since.
Tax creep. Greedy government statism. Bigger government gets, the less
for the people.
