#4 That will keep potential informed critics busy with a project that will accomplish absolutely nothing, even should the participants actually come to agreement. After all, it is Congress that has the power to tax... or not tax. Therefore it is Congress that would have to vote to change the tax laws, but this Congress is majority Democrat in both houses, the same Democrats that had so happily laden both the Stimulus bill and the budget with so many pet special interest concessions. This one should be followed for its amusement value alone.
