Great conspiracy. I'm sure the budget office couldn't tell you this in, say, 1998, either. In fact, I read an article making almost exactly the same point, except in a non-partisan way (i.e., high-tax states are likely to advocate AMT reform, regardless of party) 3 years ago.
I think the AMT sucks. At least now. But, in five years or so it will become cheaper to repeal the regular income tax instead of the AMT, which gives me sizable hope for something closer to a flat tax, or at least one that's a hell of a lot simpler.
