Having given money to Democratic candidates in the past, I’ve been getting calls from candidates asking for my support.
I’m working up a questionnaire to see whom to support; here’s a draft. There will be more questions; suggestions welcomed.
Do you support taking away the carried interest tax advantage for hedge fund operators?
Do you support increasing the federal estate tax?
Do you support eliminating planning opportunities that allow avoidance of the federal estate tax?
Do you propose to let marijuana companies start deducting their advertising and marketing expenses on either federal and North Carolina tax returns? That is, would you take away the 280E Selling Expense Tax on the books now?
Do you support government rather than for-profit private marijuana retailing in North Carolina?
My own answers would be yes to all questions except the fourth one about 280E.
