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.
All boats and all second homes over a certain value...that'll do it.
What if you travel around in an RV and trailer a boat?

What if you live on your large yacht and have a very big dinghy?

LOL

Eliminate all mortgage interest deductions. That'll do it better.

At least it would be fair across the board. Might not be popular and
might have a somewhat detrimental impact on the housing market. It
would probably help the rental market though.

Somewhat detrimental? Gee, you think? I think it would be fine to
eliminate it, but not now. It is yet again one of those things that
have a great deal of impact on the middle class and virtually no
effect on the rich.

Gosh, you think?

Doing away with the deduction for boat owners does the same. But the
Democrats have never had a problem screwing with the middle class.

Really? How have the Dems in recent history "screwed" the middle
class? You mean by protecting SS and Medicare from Republican slash
and burn policies?

Go back and read the first post in the thread. That'll explain the statement.

Oh, and if that's not enough, read the Obamacare bill very carefully.

Oh, and there's 1) no such thing as "Obamacare" and 2) the Affordable
Healthcare Act has already helped millions and will soon help millions
more.
