This is not going to get done without you.
Last week the Trump Administration announced its tax reform proposal. Its impressive and a major departure from the tax code mess we have today.
I believe its bold and will work to boost the economy without exploding the national debt. Remember, I have been studying tax reform proposals for decades. I served on the Kemp Commission for Economic Growth and Tax Reform in the early 1990s. Im very familiar with, and supportive of, the Flat Tax, the Fair Tax and of course my own 9-9-9 plan.
Sorry but I already have a job. I suggest those that we elected to do theirs. Can I expect calls and donations and support from congress to help me do my job? How far do you think I would get if I told my employer I’m going to sit on my ass cause I havent received enough phone calls encouraging me to do the job I was hired to do?
Oh and I apologize the the op. My response is directed to the elected officials who constantly state they can’t do their job if we don’t make phone calls and write letters.
Lastly, I see what the author is saying but we have done out part for the trump tax plan. We elected him.
I don't object to eliminating deductions but those politicians who figure the tax rates tend to know what they can get away with when the set the rates because of the deductability.
