Default Re: Non-mainstream ideas you would implement if President

[ QUOTE ]
I'd experiment with a consumption tax and do away with the income tax. I'd eliminate all taxes on dividends (which are paid after corporate taxes, REITs for example pay dividends before corporate taxes) and long term capital gains. I'd also try to loosen up election laws from IMO the death grip of the two party system.

What do you mean by "long term" capital gains?
