A national FLAT tax. All people and all companies pay the exact same flat tax. No deductions, no carry over of losses, etc. Simply take what you made times X % to get your tax.
By doing this, you accomplish several things
a. no more complaints that the middle class get screwed or the rich get off easy or companies don't pay taxes, etc. Everyone pays the exact same % no matter what
b. you can virtually eliminate the IRS. For individuals employed by companies, there is no need to even file a tax return since your withholding would equal your tax rate. Therefore what is taken out is what you owe. No need to file a tax return. Or if you did file one, it would consist of 3 numbers...how much did you earn & how much you had withheld. The balance is your tax due (which would be 0).

Taxes are a necessary evil. If you haven't noticed America is in debt up to her ears.
Whether we like it or not we will end up paying more taxes in order to get out of debt and this would happen under either administrations.
If we don't pay/increase taxes there will be major cuts ie. road repairs won't happen, fire & police will be cut, and schools may loose more funding. |

I would like great government services and no taxes. Unfortunately those two ideas are contradictory. |

Most people in these United States do not realize that taxes were supposed to be temporary. When the US government first started taxing its citizens it was only until the civil war debt could be paid off. Congress got to realize that this money was nice and did not want to stop it. In the early 1900's Washington had another problem with keeping the taxes. In one fiscal year 80-90% of the taxable population did not have the money to pay their owed taxes. Realizing they couldn't arrest everybody that did not pay, some genius came up with the idea of deducting taxes {More than they should} and issuing a refund later. This way the government could bank the money and collect all the interest on it. With that in mind, it really doesn't matter if thy are democrat or republican, they all want your money. As a taxpayer you shouldn't have to pay for these fat cats to live in luxury when most of us have to get by on blood, sweat, and tears. Should a mayor from Yoklesville or even New York City be allowed to go to, for example, France with his family for 1 week at tax payers expense? What good will the city get from this excursion? Taxes suck, but are needed to pay off necessary expenses {Police, fire department, military, etc}. |

Republicans favor tax cuts to the wealthy and tax increases to the middle class.
Democrats favor tax cuts to the lower class and middle class and tax increases to the wealthy.
I think that if you have the means to pay more, you should. If you don't, you shouldn't. Simple as that. |

A Flat Rate Income Tax of 15% on all income after a $10,000 exemption per family member. I would have only one credit-a refundable child tax credit of $1,000 per child. I would set the Estate Tax at 15% also for all estates over $10,000,000.
This would be fair and simple. It will never happen. Too many folks have too much invested in special loop holes. Also, politicians think they are smarter than you and want to use the tax code to influence your decisions. |

I would HATE to be President.
Ignoring the fact that the President doesn't make tax law, and answering the question what type of tax structure would I like....
Republicans typically, but not consistently, want less government and less taxes.
Democrats typically, but not consistently, want more government programs and more taxes to pay for them.
Any tax cut is attacked by the Democrats as favoring the rich, which is basically true since they pay most of the taxes.
Any tax increase is opposed by everyone; usually sold as only taxing the rich, which is not true.
I would remove the cap on social security tax (a Democratic proposal), eliminate corporate taxes (or at lest reduce them to 25%, the typical level in Europe--A Republican proposal), and keep the "Bush" tax breaks (Repubican). I would see if I could eliminate the Inheritance tax (a tax on the clueless).
For a start. |

I'd look at two things:
Where does the money come from ?
Who uses the money sunk into government programs?
Most new companies are started or receive funding from the wealthy.
Most government services are used by the middle and lower economic classes.
Now follow this logic:
If a new company is started, it pays its employees and it pays its taxes to Uncle Sam.
This leads to more jobs for the lower classes.
Taxes revenues go up thanks to the new employees and the company's taxes.
This provides more money for the socialist programs currently supported by the government.
However, the more money we remove via taxes from the rich man's hands, the fewer new ideas and companies receive funding.
Meaning fewer jobs.
Meaning less tax revenues.
Leading to an increase in tax rates for middle and lower class families so the government can make up the difference. |
