Not sure how you consider getting a tax free dividend from a company =
that one invested in a 'free' ride. Nor do I see the 'tie' between a =
dividend and an interest payment from a loan.
The major 'houses', supporting the eliminatiion of taxes on dividends, =
see a clear delineation between loaning money and getting a fixed rate =
of return and investing in a company through the purchase of the =
company's stock. I agree with them and also feel that paying dividends =
will force the company to be more deligent in funding programs that only =
have a minimal chance of success.
I don't think the issue of tax free dividends will change market =
fundamentals, or trend direction. While I strongly feel the double =
taxation should end, I don't think the shareholder should get a free =
ride on this form of income anymore than they get to avoid income tax on =
bond interest.
