Washington Stymies Common Sense

NPR asked five economists with differing political sympathies for the recommendations they unanimously support.  The six:

1) Get rid of the mortgage interest deduction.
2) Get rid of the corporate income tax.
3) Get rid of the personal income tax.
4) Legalize pot.
5) Get rid of tax deduction for companies providing health care.
6) Institute a carbon tax. 

For their justifications, go here.
