Before I switch topics...we should decide BEFORE we rewrite our tax code if businesses are people or not and act accordingly. We should also decide who, what, when, why, and how we tax BEFORE we rewrite our tax code.

Let's move to moving. I've covered this one before. This is another place that companies can write off an expense necessary to bring in income, but you cannot...and it's effective 12/31/17. Hope you don't have a move planned in January.

This really limits mobility for people. What do you do if there are no jobs in your town? Or the biggest employer shuts down and you have to choose move or lose your job?

Pages 510 on explain the reconciled bill, so really it's not *that* much longer than the Senate bill. It is still a lot of pages to review.
