The federal government should remove property tax deductions on state and local taxes

...to fuck people over who choose to live in high tax states and localities. It will also help pay down the debt!

 

That is if congress doesn't spend it first. Which of course they will.

We don't have a revenue problem we have a spending problem.

 

Regardless, remove the tax deduction and fuck em over.

 

"The federal government should remove property tax deductions on state and local taxes"

Your title makes absolutely no sense as it is worded. Have you ever owned any real property?

 

Hmmm... I agree. The federal government should remove tax deductions for state and local taxes

 

You mean these?

There are five types of deductible nonbusiness taxes:
State, local and foreign income taxes
State, local and foreign real estate taxes
State, and local personal property taxes
State and local sales taxes, and
Qualified motor vehicle taxes

 

Yes

 

Everyone wants the loop holes closed on everybody but themselves.

 

Almost everyone. I'd like to see a revenue neutral simplified tax code without any tax deductions or credits, even for me.

 

I don't think it will ever happen because the two things politicians love to do the most is spend money and make tax breaks and take them away. With a simplified tax code they won't be able to double talk the public into not understanding how they are manipulating the nation's finances.
