McCain Propose Tax Holiday for Beer HeiressesSays Brewery Scions Could Lead Economic Revival Presumptive Republican presidential nominee John McCain unveiled details of his economic policy today, telling an audience in Ohio that if elected, he would support a real-estate tax holiday for beer heiresses. Sen. McCain said that his tax-holiday plan could lead to a revival for the U.S. economy, arguing, “The key to this country's economic well-being has been and will always be those Americans with vast inherited brewery wealth.” The Arizona senator took great pains to indicate that the tax holiday would not be available to all brewery heiresses, “just those with a net worth of over 100 million dollars.” Sen. McCain's real-estate tax-holiday proposal came on the heels of the news that his wife, presumptive First Lady nominee Cindy McCain, had failed to pay real-estate taxes on her La Jolla, Calif., home for four years. But Sen.
Standing at Sen. McCain's side during his appearance, Mrs. McCain endorsed the real-estate tax holiday and offered an explanation for her failure to pay four years' worth of real-estate taxes. “I guess it slipped my mind,” she said. “Quite frankly, I've been busy coming up with totally original recipes for my Web site.” COPYRIGHT 2008 CREATORS SYNDICATE
