I saw this article yesterday and thought it was complete bullshit then. Not


only is it full of inaccuracies (as others pointed out below), it also ends up being an argument for the lowering of state and local taxes because of a "feature" of the GOP tax reform package that doesn't allow you to write those off anymore. Wasn't that the objective of the elimination of the SALT deduction in the first place? To punish cities and states (many Democratic strongholds) with higher taxes in the hopes of increasing pressure on them to vote Republican in local elections? This reeks of an ALEC initiative if ever there was one.
