ABC News reports:
A bill making the rounds on Capitol Hill marries two feel-good
propositions -- tax cuts and pet ownership -- to generate a novel idea:
A tax break of up to $3,500 per person for pet care expenses.
This has to be one of the stupidest ideas I've ever heard.
"What a pro-active way to be able to help the economy and change the
culture in this country around animals," Robert Davi, a veteran actor
("The Goonies," "Die Hard," "License to Kill") who was a main force
behind the bill's introduction, told ABCNews.com in a telephone
interview.
Davi? Uh oh.
Yeah, on second thought, it's a great idea. And you think so too. Write your congressperson.
Not that it matters, but one of my all-time favorite movie quotes is:
This is agent Johnson. … No, the other one.
Must have seen it fifty times. I still chuckle.
