The problem comes in that it would put a lot of folks out of work (government and private sector) and they can't have that.
So simple a caveman could do it?? (the tax form)

3.) Expand the section 179 and bonus depreciation to include more things we buy to grow our businesses
4.) Abandon/Revise their anti business mindset that produced ideas like the 1099's that would go to anyone/business we paid $600 to for goods or services.
5.) Go back to being a Federal Government and stop the micromanagement of things they should not be involved in like incandescent vs CFL lighting.
6.) Give us a modicum of visibility and certainty with respect to regulatory change and at the same time certainty with respect to how long it will be effective - at the very least what it is. It's tough to plan when you don't know what the rules will be next year.
Thanks for going to bat bat for us. Hope you get at least a single or double. I'm not kidding myself about home runs with the current crowd we have up there.
