Probably trying not to be overly inflammatory, you don't spell out the suspicion that the candidate herself has no idea what the difference between a tax credit and a tax deduction is, nor their disparate impacts on a business. Nor does she care. She's just throwing chum out there for the rubes. And the position of 'tax expert' on her campaign staff is, how do we say, unfilled at the moment.
But we're not all rubes out here. I've found a new dentist in Sugar Land since my move, and went for my first visit yesterday. A good guy who also grew up in Southern California (note he's in Texas now), he explained that his parents were Cuban emigres and had started a Cuban sandwich shop which has expanded to a network of 6 in the LA area. While poking around my mouth and looking at X-rays, he asked if I had heard of Kamala's tax on unrealized gains? He went off on how crazy it was and I mumbled my agreement. He ended by saying, "and Janet agrees with me", Janet being the hygienist holding the sucker tube.
If I can have an intelligent conversation on tax policy during my first dentist visit, then there are people out here paying attention. Keep up the good work.
Pandering to the consulting class in the deep state/swamp. If you have a good rep with the political class and want to branch out as an LLC you could generate $50k in current year expenses. And getting start up capital would not be a stretch. Right now you already get to deduct multiple methods that could raise to this amount, so it is “smoke and mirrors “.
Harris' entire campaign is built on smoke and mirrors. She's purposely ambiguous in her statements, partly because she's an empty suited know-nothing and partly because she and her puppeteers don't want the policies they're going to cram down our throats subjected to pre-election scrutiny.
It's a variation of the old Pelosi tactic: You've got to elect Kamala before she'll tell you what she's going to do.
Unfortunately, her disingenuousness stands a very good chance of getting her elected.

Thanks for your comment, Rick . I think that the point you make answers the question in my conclusion: “ Does anyone think she understands this?”

I feel like I'm living in Rome in 476AD.
