The week's question
In December 2024, in the thread "Re: BRK: Why Not XOM?", BreckHutHigh asked the members: "What about the long road trips with kids?" This week it is put to everyone again. The button below opens the small thread re-asking it - read what others have said so far, then give your own answer as an ordinary reply.

Okay, you've got me there. If your beef is with the $10,000 SALT cap, why in the Wide World of Sports would you support DonOld, the guy who capped SALT in the first place and who -- along with the GOP House -- has said he ain't lifting the cap?

================

If a state or city has all sorts of expensive programs and has to tax the crap out of its citizens to pay for them, that is fine, so long as that cost is not propagated through the tax code to other less generous states.

The SALT cap rules, and I live in Texas, a high Property Tax/Sales Tax state.
