I'll admit to being a bit surprised, but the Heritage link actually showed some reasonable, workable ideas.

Allowing 529 plans to contribute, not penalizing the benefit from employers, etc. seem like they would gather wide consensus. Others are worth consideration, though the ones "eliminating" regulations without each one being judged on it's own merits seem as suspicious as the Youngkin-Trump mantras of just eliminate 25% which didn't work out too well for anybody.

Despite the Republican urban legends to the contrary, most regulations are there for a reason. Debate them on their own merits.

Still, there are opportunities. Open the discussion. It needs addressing.
