Starting to Make Taxes Fair

Published on February 23, 2010 in Economics and Politics. 0 Comments Tags: , , , .

A bipartisan bill to reform the tax code is making its way toward the floor of the Senate. I have not read the full bill, but an editorial today by its co-authors in the Wall Street Journal leaves me with hope:

There is an important issue looming on the congressional horizon: how to address the expiration of the Bush tax cuts at the end of this year. We believe there is a consensus way forward, which is why we are introducing the Bipartisan Tax Fairness and Simplification Act of 2010.

By streamlining and modernizing the outdated tax code, our proposal would eliminate many of the specialized tax breaks that currently benefit one group of Americans over another. The changes we propose will create policies that benefit everyone. They include: fiscally responsible middle-class tax cuts, business tax breaks to help American companies compete globally and create jobs, and a fairer and simpler tax system for all Americans.
