Treasury Renews Campaign for Tax-Free Savings Accounts – This kind of thing makes sense for various capitalist and fairness reasons. It’s also another perfect example of how fluid the tax environment is. Long range tax and financial planning has more unknown future variables to contend with than the weather has. However, it’s still very premature to count on these proposed breaks becoming real. They still have to survive the guaranteed onslaught of “tax breaks for the rich” propaganda from the lefties who want us all to believe that only evil rich people can afford to put anything into savings accounts.

One of the reasons I’ve never been a big fan of investing one’s life savings in the stock market. It can’t be good for a person’s health to have to wonder day by day whether you are broke or doing well.

Congress ‘Piles on the Pork,’ Group Says

Fight the Tax Abusers – With plenty of very simple and very legal methods of minimizing taxes, you won’t find me defending the big CPA firms for selling scam tax shelter packages to their gullible clients.

SUV loophole/A gift from U.S. taxpayers – A little jealousy on the part of those who can’t deduct the cost of their vehicles. Those W-2 wage slaves should just shut the heck up, start their own businesses and then they can get the same tax breaks as the people brave enough to be self employed.

How Individual Social Security Accounts Can Work – An even better approach is to not pay anything into the SS system and have complete control over that money.

Year-end tax strategies get a little more complicated

Now this is a more powerful slur:

Although it would be nice to let sailors off the hook, I doubt if “spending like drunken elephants” will catch on, even though our GOP rulers can’t say no to any new funding requests.
