I guess my big objection is that most people never want temporary tax breaks to end, and they make such a stink about it (farm subsidies come most to mind) that they never end, despite the intent when enacted that they be able to end someday.
Civilian citizens don't have that kind of absurd clout, so I expect the home mortgage interest deduction to come to an end pretty soon. But breaks for farmers and corporations that were never designed to be permanent will be permanent despite obsolescence because the parties affected have too much influence in government. Yes, TOO MUCH, imo.
