Subject: Question -- Repeal of Corporate Alternative mininum tax

It is easy to find analysis from the right about why corporate AMT is
bad and why the repeal/refund is reasonable policy. (not saying such
analyses are correct, just that they provide an actual arguments.)
However, after some (admittedly not thorough) research, I have been
unable to find anything similar coming from the left. I have found
plenty of braod, emotional condemnations, but no analysis.

Could one of you economist types point me to a left analysis of the
corporate AMT and proposed repeal/refund?

Thanks very much
