Just wait. One of these days your "gosh its free" tax break will come
with a hidden cost : USA not a superpower, $10/gal gasoline, $45
tshirts, $105 button-down shirts, $8/loaf bread, $8/gallon milk, and
no social security system or medicare to fall back upon in your early
retirement due to age discrimination.

And people will all laugh at you, a fool, through and through ...

"business stimulus" will more than compensate and make us all rich.
(See how well it's worked over the last few years?)
