Subject: HR25

Comment: The people want true tax reform. HR25 is a fantastic plan. But, being a realist, I understand that the Presidents Tax Reform Panel does not care what the people want or what’s best for the country, they only care about what the special interest groups and lobbyist on K Street want. In the same realist vein, I also understand that no one will report any of these comments to anyone. Washington ‘insiders’ and their flunky academicians really don’t want tax reform as true reform would mean the power structure would change and that change would likely be detrimental to them.
