Ben,
With oil nearing $50 a barrel due to the Mexican rig fire, perhaps the middle class tax cut could come in the form of the elimination of the gas tax. Its basically a flat tax, and it hurts the bottom end of the economic spectrum the most. If we cut it, we can get prices at the pump near or below $2 a gallon again.
Just a thought.
Very good idea Ford... sorry to take a while to get back ta ya on it.
I will give the details more thoughts soon, but as things stand right now that is a very good idea, I was thinking that a portion of the taxcut could come from consumer goods, my hope being that while revenue will initially fall in the long term increased buying will mean increased revenue through tax.
But a good though... by the way did you get the email I sent off?
