Not across the board. Only for homes with a value high enough to have a mortgage that provides deductibility. And I thought the cool idea today was housing affordability. Now the argument is to support home prices and keep them high! Who knew.

Yes, Mitts $396 is less to him than your $250 might be. But Mitt's $396 is more money removed from government pockets that ought to be available to help those in need and at risk. But I'm OK with it if you want the rich to have more cash in their pockets instead of sending it to Washington. It just doesn't make progressive sense. Down with the mortgage deduction! Down with the rich!
