Proving once again that G.W. Bush doesn’t give a fuck about the environment, his administration’s economic plan includes a 50% or more tax deduction on S.U.V.’s. And not just the base models either, but the big honkin’ globe crushers:
The plan would mean small businesses could immediately deduct the entire price of S.U.V.’s like the Hummer H2, the Lincoln Navigator and the Toyota Land Cruiser, even if the vehicles were loaded with every available option. Or a business owner, taking full advantage, could buy a BMW X5 sport utility vehicle for a few hundred dollars more than a Pontiac Bonneville sedan, after the immediate tax deductions were factored in.
Tax cuts like this should be used to promote positive change and not environmental mollestation. How about 50% tax deductions for alternative fuels or mass transit users instead of promoting more dependance on oil? Idiot!
