Tax Talks Lead Nowhere Good

The US Senate may vote on its tax ‘reform’ plan this week. If it passes, they’ll have to reconcile it with the somewhat different House plan.
I expect they’ll get bogged down at that point, and today’s broken, dysfunctional tax code will stay as it is.
At least we’ll know what we’re dealing with, but we’ll have missed a chance to fix some of the most glaring problems.
We don’t lack opinions, though. My tax-related articles of the last two weeks drew quite a few reader responses. Today I’ll share some of them and add my own comments.
