11. Let me guess... RIGHT AFTER THE NEXT ELECTION.
And what does "tax reform" mean? What's enough "tax reform"? Closing the corp jet loophole?

I can write a book on what "tax reform" would mean to me, starting with those corporate mail boxes in the Caribbean.

You know. The ones Obama talked about during his 2008 campaign.

Obama echoed this view on September 22 in a speech in Wisconsin, when he said, “We lose $100 billion every year because corporations get to set up mailboxes offshore so that they can avoid paying a dime of taxes in America. Imagine if you got to do that… I will shut down those offshore tax havens and corporate loopholes as President, because you shouldn’t have to pay higher taxes because some big corporation cut corners to avoid paying theirs.”
