        Why kill the AMT when it’s more fun to kill others?

        Look at this man. Does he not personify the disconnection between old government and todays people? How much old money influences this man and manipulates his decisions everyday. The GOP is dead and now they’re just rotting the place up. I’m tired of the smell.

        Yeah, taxing the poor and middle class to pay the rich isn’t tax reform.

        Middle class pay the bulk of taxes in this country and the poor still pay sales tax, property tax, tag fees, license fees. Stop being ignorant of the facts.

        The simple fix is to increase the exemption used to compute AMTI. This tax became unfair when middle income taxpayers became subject to it. Keep in mind, too, that eliminating the deduction for taxes will lessen the impact of the AMT.
