9-9-9 interesting
the link is a "lets throw poo at the wall and shout that poo stinks" 9-9-9 was always a starting point to a tax overhaul. too bad the democratic idea for a tax overhaul is tax the rich at 70% while democrats also state that anyone making over 50k a year is rich. Not much of a distinction there.
My ask was a just a curious since you live sorta near the seat of power and didnt know if you managed to bump into people inadvertently. I talked to him once to cure him of his misunderstanding about the business on the air and a couple of times in person off the cuff in the ATL area. Nice enough person off the mike. Didnt have the pizazz of a kennedy but wasn't a numbnuts like a lot of other DC folks I have bumped into over the years.

Who cares if he's a nice guy off the mike?
What counts is the policies he'll try to pass. I don't need to meet him to know those.

why not tax the rich at 70% ?
the top tax rate under Eisenhower was 90% and American businesses and rich folks didn't stop trying to better the economy then.

Not from any Democrat that I know of.
