Bill: Incremental Tax Reform

Details

Submitted by[?]: National Centrist Party

Status[?]: passed

Votes: This bill is a resolution. It requires more yes votes than no votes. This bill will not pass any sooner than the deadline.

Voting deadline: August 2066

Description[?]:

In order to solve the present, intermittent funding crises that Likatonia is undergoing, the Likaton Future Party proposes that we lower the exemption by $2000 and the tax rate by 1% per year for ten years. This would result in a final tax of 30% and a final exemption of $20,000.

MessageThis will offer more revenue up.

I will be perfectly honest on what this means:
This will cut taxes on the rich while extending the reach of the government to tax the middle class.

The working poor are still completely untaxed.

MessageThe problem is, once you create a tiered system, how do you prevent it from evolving into a monster?
