Wouldn't you like it simplified a lot, though? When the tax code can stabilize a deck umbrella in gale force winds with its own heft, I think reform is called for. Not a single person I know does theirs without hired help. Yes, folks have jobs and that's cool, but they contribute nothing to the GDP.I have to say, I see no real unfairness in the progressive tax system (unless you think it is unfair that some people at lower incomes pay no tax) but I'm not sure that it is needed.
It would be unfair to lower the top earners from 35 to 28 for a charity write offs, though, unless the earners in the other tax brackets had the same percentage lowered.
