That's probably right. But the Shrub has been very good for my personal pocket-book, despite not fixing that dratted AMT! I suppose that I am one of the privileged "rich" -- at least until I can convince someone to hire me to fight evil.

I'll tell you, I don't so much mind the extra 2% the AMT stacked onto my tax bill as the hours I spent figuring it out. [BTW -- this is the first year it hit me, and our family engages in none of the mandatory triggering activities (except for a home equity line). A real-life example of the stuff you read about in the paper.]
