    There are no loopholes. That’s something they want you to believe.

    The tax code is written in a specific way and that’s not a loophole.

    Mistakes happen but most of the “loopholes” are there by design.

      So the next question is what can be done, like today, where can I go who should should I contact other than my usual reps?

        Contact any rep who will listen but that number is about zero.

        That’s the issue with two party system.

        Our tax system is overly complex. They should just send you a bill or credit like most European systems.

          I like to think my support in third parties on the rise in 200 years has helped then 😄

            Yeah I’d line to see six or more parties. The problem two is they just claim to be against the other.

            I’m a republican but their current policies are just being against the democrats.

            You need counter forces to get things done. We’ve been in a stalemate for a long time now with each side blaming the other.

            Democrats have a majority and you don’t see all the grand things they’ve been promising because they are full of crap.

            Same for the republicans.

            If we had six parties. They’d really get judged on what they accomplish.

              The party I am registered as primarily focuses on spreading word on Ranked Choice, only because there’s no other way to compete.

                I’ll admit I’ve always rejected the idea but I think I’m rejecting it because I don’t understand it. I think I need to read more about it and maybe support it.

                I think it may be our best solution since we are stuck in two party limbo.

                Yes we do have other parties on occasion but not enough to stir the pot.

                I’m an old school republican and the new party just blows. If we have enough mix of parties, I’d with to the one that aligns better with my values.
