    In a quick review, it appears that many of these *proposals* (not actual changes so far) would affect corporations, not individuals (assuming the silly “corporations are people” isn’t in play) . Eliminating corporate tax loopholes looks like a good idea to me.

    BTW, I fail to see how the final 2014 proposal – -Increase the Standard Mileage Rate for Automobile Use by Volunteers – is a tax hike.

    I drop a comment when I like a article on a site or I have something to valuable to contribute to the discussion. Usually it’s triggered by the passion communicated in the article I browsed. And on this article %BLOG_TITLE%. I was actually excited enough to leave a thought 🙂 I do have 2 questions for you if you usually do not mind. Could it be only me or does it give the impression like a few of the remarks come across as if they are written by brain dead folks? 😛 And, if you are posting on additional places, I’d like to follow you. Could you make a list every one of your public pages like your Facebook page, twitter feed, or linkedin profile?|
