I caught a quick blurb on that. Apparently you can now set aside tax free money for education prior to college?

So you get tax-free growth in the account, plus a State income tax deduction and many of the State deductions are very generous.

Financially incentivizing education? On the republican platform? No. It cannot be.

Good, but not good enough. Contributions to the 529 aren't pretax money, are they? I need to find a way to write off 30k...

Baby steps. So long as it’s moving in the right direction. Imagine the poop storm whennthese cuts are set to ‘expire’. You think people are going to want to give their money back?

I loved rand's soeach about restraining spending too. Tax cuts are great, it's like a 3% raise of my own money! But we have outspent out GDP and that's a problem.
