The Loss deduction would go away along with the Gain Tax

Scott — 10/11/2002 11:01:11 AM (archived)

The rates are what will change. Not the tax itself...

The losses should be deductable because tax was paid on the way up. Why shouldn't it be refunded on the way down. Uncle Sam got an interest free loan. Now he not only wants to keep the interest...He wants to keep the loan.
