I dont see how it would hurt those corporations or government jobs and I dont know of any federal matching funds program that would be impacted.

I guess it comes down to how you feel about taxes generally.

What does "tax fairness" mean to you? Does it mean all taxpayers should pay the same rate or is it fair for higher income earners to pay a higher percentage.
