Ok really! Now it all makes sense. There is absolutely no way that any true conservative Republican can vote for this crappy Bill.
Yikes: @HillaryClinton is now the latest to back Senate Liberals' & @RepKenBuck's misguided antitrust agenda that will wreck America’s job-creating innovators and hurt the economy at a time of record-high inflation. Conservatives take note. Oppose the #AICOAct.

Vital new project here of interest not only to consumers, but taxpayers as well.
Happy "Empty Schedule" Monday! Even if filling up the tank this weekend was painful, be thankful as gas prices went up overnight (again) and baby formula still not readily available. #TheBidenBurden @newtgingrich @realKTMcFarland @mikepompeo @SteveForbesCEO
Great piece from the Master of Monetary Policy -- to fight inflation, Fed needs to stop feeding Washington's bloated spending and regulatory spree.
Outstanding ACCF panel on IRS technology challenges -- both former Commissioners agreed that "return-free" filing should NOT be a tax agency priority: accf.org/2022/03/22/today-at…
Great observation from Steve Forbes -- surrendering our energy edge means costly policy responses that will burden taxpayers even more
Biden killed U.S. energy independence to please his base. The result: skyrocketing fuel prices & inflation. Add global energy shocks from Putin’s Ukraine invasion & its clear we need an “Operation Energy Independence” to get it back. @GOP @MariaBartiromo usenergynow.org/
With 30% of workers involved in non-traditional or gig work, ACCF report outlines important tax compliance burden questions. Policymakers, look before you leap! accf.org/2021/09/16/new-repo…
World is still crawling out of a health crisis, U.S. innovation needed more than ever, and WH is calling for more drug price negotiation? Wrong direction! wsj.com/articles/joe-biden-j… via @WSJOpinion
As a friend of False Claims Act, I agree w/CCAGW (@GovWaste) that hearings MUST come before any votes to change this successful law: ccagw.org/legislative-affair…
Price control schemes for critical medicines are back, making this warning from economists 2-1/2 years ago timely and relevant.
History has shown that price controls on any commodity produce unintended but consistently detrimental effects. Despite this, the Department of Health and Human Services is considering a scheme to set some Medicare drug prices using an international index.

Important point here -- overtaxation (ntu.org), overregulation, and confiscation schemes can hurt medical discoveries that save taxpayer dollars on health care over long run.
Another example of how AARP can work against its members' interests. NTUF has long tracked AARP's harmful stances on fiscal policy, most recently in 2018. (ntu.org/foundation/detail/re…). Back then it was a dangerous expansion of CMMI demonstration projects. realclearmarkets.com/article…
.@AmerComm’s Jon Decker argues in a recent @RC_Markets op-ed that a “fundamental conflict between AARP’s own financial interests and the interests of its senior members has been manifested in AARP’s public policy positions and advocacy.” Read more: bit.ly/3vfVNfp
Interesting analysis from Tax Administrators on another filing deadline delay -- expensive for taxpayers, deferred refunds. taxadmin.org/the-best-way-to…. Among better options: payment extension, reduced underpayment penalty. IRS must adapt, just as taxpayers have.
Very smart analysis from @ppi about how complexity of EITC would pose significant filing challenges and possibly undercut benefits for low- and middle- income taxpayers if the IRS were to take complete control of the tax system. progressivepolicy.org/public…
Incredibly astute analysis by Steve here on Net Operating Loss tax policy. As @ntuf has noted, NOLs are not handouts! ntu.org/foundation/detail/ne…
Dems may try to scuttle critical tool for employers to survive & fully reopen to fund bailout of mismanaged blue states. Net Operating Loss carry backs allow businesses to stay open; blank check state bailouts just keep US in lockdown. @stevenmnuchin1 @WhiteHouse @realDonaldTrump
