I take your meaning, but I am not looking for a interest group tax deduction. I am really wondering about what all of us need out of a tax system. It is more about when is it ok to tax and when is it just moving money around (SS and Unemployment are two I can think of off the top of my head).
I admit to being in the flat-rate tax camp with exclusions for one time capital gains (selling stock not dividends) and estate tax. I also wish they just gave a large basic deduction ($15K or $20K) and had everyone file as individuals.
