Oklahoma Leads on Income-Tax Repeal
Let’s hope this is the start of a trend; with pro-growth forward thinking States realizing that lower taxes encourage business activity, while the short sighted suicidal States (California, et al), continue to raise their taxes and drive productive citizens away.

Another AMT?
Posted by taxguru on January 30, 2012
As if the current alternative minimum tax calculation weren’t insane enough, some of our DemonRat rulers in DC are considering adding a second one that they are naming after their Class Envy Clown, Warren Buffett.
Democratic Senators to Push ‘Buffett Rule’
Households with adjusted annual gross incomes over $1 million would prepare their taxes as they do now, with all the deductions, credits and loopholes intact. They would also calculate what 30 percent of their adjusted gross income amounts to. They would then pay whichever amount was larger.
How long do you suppose it will take for that million dollar threshold figure to drop and ensnare millions more, just as the current AMT has?

Is Accountant a derogatory term?
Posted by taxguru on January 26, 2012
Some people get all bent out of shape when they are referred to as Accountants, as in this scene from a recent episode of the British TV show, Mad Dogs.
Warning: British TV censorship standards are very similar to what we have on HBO and Showtime in the USA. In other words, this clip does contain the F word.

This comes with the territory when you run for high office.
From Conan via NewsMax:
Mitt Romney released his tax records and they showed that he earned $42 million over the last two years. So now the other candidates aren’t running for president. They’re running to be Mitt Romney.
