Put a smile back on investor's faces by allowing each to take their capital losses as a deduction against ordinary income; presently, only 3K per year can be taken. The immediate result would be a pick up in retail sales, optimism, and a generally positive attitude. Someone please get this idea to McCain's camp. Appreciate your comments.

My mother took a 250k hit with a corrupt and fraudulent contractor on a home she was renovating. She's been taking the 3k loss every year. I'm sure she'd love to take the rest of that 250k this year, heck, that would qualify her for the EIC!

It prevents the rich from writing off their living expenses as capital losses.
