Alter Income Tax Amendment XVI

Another idea would be to avoid increasing the tax rates as this will help “minimize economic distortions that shrink the level of production” (Baker III, 2009, p. 1). To promote economic growth, our team recommends that we take the approach of increasing the corporate tax base and decreasing the corporate tax rates. Other suggestion is to reduce the deductibility of state and local taxes. Other reforms that could be looked

Proposition 30 (prop 30 or SB11) is supported by the schools and local public safety protection Act of 2012. Prop 30 is a tax initiative led by California governor Jerry Brown. Prop 30 is aimed at reducing forecasted budget cuts to public schools also higher education, by increasing the California sales tax from 7.25% to 7.50%for the next four years. It also will create three new tax brackets for taxable incomes. Incomes exceeding $250,000, $300,000 and $500,000 will pay more in taxes for the next seven years. With the extra money being saved will go towards adding more classes for higher education students. Also to help reduce California’s state budget, prop 30 should raise $6 billion annually form raised taxes.

The tax policy in the United States is very confusing. When the tax policy was originally written in 1913 it was four hundred pages. Now, over the past ninety one years, that tax policy has evolved to over 72,000 pages. Since the tax code has become so lengthy and nearly impossible to understand, the topic of tax reform has been in the minds of many. Although, most barely think about tax reform until tax season. It is a controversial subject due to the impact a change in tax code would have on the American people. The two most popular and widely known stakeholders in this debate are the two major political parties in the United States, the Democrats and the Republicans. The two parties share absolutely no common ground on the subject of

We should change our constitution for the reason that the political process that we use today is inefficient and unequal. The framers of the constitution made the political process inefficient on the basis that they wanted the government to be powerful enough to protect them from another state but not so powerful that they could take their property. The constitution was set up to protect the minority being that the framers of the constitution were a part of the minority. A way in which the political process is inefficient is that the legislative branch is split up into two branches the House and the Senate. The framers of the constitution did this to give states power in the political process as a result of them being independent prior to

Currently, the United States has a federal income tax that is very difficult to understand, to comply with,

Initiative petition- A process permitted in some states whereby voters may put proposed changes in the state law to a vote if sufficient signatures are obtained on petitions.

The 19th Amendment was ratified on August 18, 1920. The 19th Amendment provided men and women with equal voting rights. The United States Constitution created in 1789 unattended the subject of suffrage. In the beginning of the 1800s many women suffrage supporters marched, lectured and even practiced civil disobedience to achieve a big change in the constitution. It took decades to accomplish this around 1878 is when the amendment was first introduced in congress.

I would add an amendment that enforces equal pay for men and women. Congress shall require that every man and woman receive equal pay for the same job. By enacting my new amendment, I will have to repeal the Third Amendment which only allows veterans to live in your home with consent from the owner. First, I believe this amendment needs removal to help decrease the homeless veteran population. These are the men and women that fight for us to have freedom and be safe. Therefore we should give back to them by letting them stay in they defended. Although there are programs that do help these homeless veterans, by removing this amendment the number can lessen even more. I feel as though America owes these veterans and should allow the ones in

The current tax policy in the United States is very confusing and it is very costly for our government to administer it. It is in the best interest of our country and its citizens to revise or replace our current tax policy.

If I had the opportunity to change the Constitution of the United States of America, I would change the Electoral College system. Like many other Americans, I feel that the Electoral College system is not effective. It caries a notion of the state versus the people, electors oversee a large part of the country and is change the answer to this issue? I believe that times have changed and we need to reform the electoral system all while not changing the constitution.

Our current income tax system today is very complex, unfair, inhibits saving, investment and job creation, imposes a heavy burden on families, and weakens the integrity of the democratic process. It can't be fixed and must be replaced. The U.S. income tax code is a long and complex system. The income tax system is so complex; the IRS publishes 480 tax forms and 280 forms to explain the 480 forms. The IRS sends out eight billion pages of forms and instructions each year. The administrative costs of the tax system far exceed those borne directly by the IRS. Each year Americans devote 5.4 billion hours complying with the tax code, which is more time than it takes to build every car, truck, and van produced in the U.S.

Amendments to the United States Constitution are rare, there have only been 27 that is upheld in the 200 year of American history and with the last of being passed over 20 years ago. And There’s never been one that has been ratified to the states legislator, but would 2016 election this could change with the GOP what is state shot of two-thirds majority. With this kind of Power ideas can be placed into the Constitution with less resistance then years passed. It’s much easier to have a federal law passed only needing a 50% agreement amongst legislator to have it put to a vote and passed with a two-thirds agreement. But now that GOP is majority of the legislative they can make and ideas stick. And What I mean by that is that it’ll be just as

We have all heard the famous quote by Benjamin Franklin who stated, “In this world nothing can be said to be certain, except death and taxes.” (“Benjamin Franklin Quotes”) We find this to be true as we begin working and feel the pain of money being taken from our paychecks. Then we face the chore of having to file income taxes yearly. Although there are many taxes we are subject to, most people are referring to federal income tax when they complain about taxes. There has been debate for decades about the current system but there has been no agreement on how to fix it. The United States currently has a progressive tax code which means people pay taxes according to their earnings. This has been in place since the time of Abraham Lincoln. An alternative

The United States debt and defecit is a major problem in our society. One thing I would propose to the President would be to tax the rich. Time. It's useful to keep in mind how the rich are different. When you are poor, you are willing to trade your time to earn money. When you are rich, you trade your money to get more time. For example, the rich hire people to clean their homes, and they don't waste time shopping for bargains. In business school I learned that when people have different preferences, you can usually find a way to engineer a deal. Gratitude. Imagine that the government arranges to provide genuine person-to-person gratitude to the rich in exchange for higher tax rates. Suppose (bad idea alert) the government makes it a

I am sure you get many letter this time of year, but there is one item that I would like for Christmas this year. One thing I would like to be changed is income inequality and the severe gap between average population and the extremely rich. This immensely small percentage of people hold all the power, money, and has way too much. These people should be rewarded for their hard work and attaining a vast wealth, however there needs to be limit on it and lower the gap between the two group.
