We also call for the abolition of capital-gains taxes, which would immediately add value to the personal portfolios of every American and bring relief to anyone saving to retire, buy a home or go to college. This is the type of vivid pro-growth, pro-savings and pro-investment strategy that's needed to create jobs and restore stability to the financial markets. If President Obama used these 12 solutions as the basis for his 2010 budget, it would enjoy bipartisan support and set America on the path to recovery...
