On the twitter wire by cidsports:

usnews Goldman Sachs: A Housing Fix... an article on the US News & World Report web site today.

One thought from http://twitter.com/cidsports would be for the Federal Government to stop taxing consumers when Credit Card companies and banks forgive consumers on accrued interest. Credit card interest is no longer deductible, so why tax consumers, if they negotiate accrued interest, due to financial reasons?

Another suggestion would be to index the Alternative Minimum Tax, so it doesn't catch up with those people that the AMT was never intended for.

food for thought

August, 1, 1987: Our Wedding Anniversary

I thought about starting a new blog recently. I thought our 21st wedding anniversary would be a good date to begin. Of course, I didn't have time on Friday, so here it begins. A new blog dedicated to my views and observations on public policy.

I began writing a sports blog in 2007, so after reflecting on my concerns about politics in the Cedar Rapids area, I thought a blog dedicated to public policy is more fitting, than to combine my love for sports and interest in public policy discussion into one blog: http://cidsports.blogspot.com/.
