According to some analysts, whatever its merits may be, the proposal of taxing away all capital gains on short-term investments would, if enacted, have a disastrous effect on Wall Street trading and employment.

Crick
is it just a question of whats idiomatic and whats not .
proposal is a noun and to tax is an infinitive. Infinitives are adverbial modifiers so how can an infinitive modify a noun

It looks like the decision is predicated on the difference in idiomatic usage between "proposal to tax..." and "proposal of taxing...". I think you'll agree that the former is better.

The usage of 'whatever' in this sentence is somewhat old-fashioned, but by no means incorrect. It's essentially equivalent to both words of 'regardless of' rolled up into one.

HTH. In any case, 1000SC problems are often not as clear-cut as the genuine article.

Ron , if you read this post , could you clarify my doubts in the previous post

According to some analysts,
whatever its [proposal's] merits may be, the proposal of taxing away all capital gains on short-term investments would, if enacted, have a disastrous effect on Wall Street trading and employment.

I understand that proposal is subject and the verb[/color] used is have!

Can someone please correct me?
Regards,

Pranay
