Forget Reagan, they claimed they were trying to do it last year. Remember the post card?

By cutting the ability to deduct SALT they made tens of millions of people who would have otherwise itemized do a simple 1040. While not a postcard it did greatly simplify taxes for many people.

That said, most of those people are still going to see it as a travesty because they had to pay a little more (god forbid people rich enough to have thousands of dollars of SALT pay taxes on the income used to pay that SALT).
