  1. I do agree the straight-line depreciation schedules are bs. But the solution to that is a switch to a cash-flow tax like a DBCFT (ie full expensing - except for land (this is related to generating a back-door land-value-tax)) at the business level and a progressive consumption tax for individuals

    Yes, really. You do not get taxed on the equivalent rental income you would receive on the house you live in if you instead rented it out. It’s called imputed rent or owners-equivalent rent and it’s calculated and part of the CPI and PCE.
