17. There's a worse change
"Another new rule requires that taxpayers who deduct cash donations have a receipt or bank record, such as a canceled check, to prove the gift. Instead of placing a few dollars in the collection plate, donors might want to write a check."

Combine that with the new standard of proving that household goods meet some nebulous definition of "good condition" and the little people won't be able to get write off their donations.
