some of us do burn up cars in their business. Section 179 was put in place for business which use heavy equipment. Last time I looked and explorer did not weigh enough but a Tahoe and bigger trucks do... because farmers sometimes use big pickup truck type vehicles to haul things around. The real reason it seems that the tax code is a gift to some is because real businesses really do have real expenses. Some businesses get to sneak in and pretend they have real expenses.
Wanna hear a really good jobs plan? Even better than the Cantor jobs plan? A jobs plan that will create 15 million jobs, and raise the wages of the poorest workers the most? Brace yourselves, here goes: Kick out 15 million illegal immigrants, create 15 million jobs! Most illegals have low skilled/unskilled jobs, it would create a demand for the low skilled (poorest) sector of society. That's exactly what liberals want, right? More jobs, and better conditions for the poor. Every liberal in the nation should be behind this plan. Immigration is also the number one factor contributing to our environmental impact, our carbon footprint, and the destruction of ecologically intact environments; another liberal cause. Every lefty in America should be a devout supporter of a deportation plan, otherwise they don't really care about poor Americans or the environment.
The liberals don't want jobs for the poor. At least not jobs that don't pay them 10 times what they are worth. What the left wants is for government to support the poor so they DON'T HAVE TO WORK. And so they will vote for their liberal politician. Work is demeaning and is something white people do, not minorities.
