ASSOCIATED cott A PP L E WH ITE Reforming Our Tax System, Reducing Our Deficit Roger Altman, William Daley, John Podesta, Robert Rubin, Leslie Samuels, Lawrence Summers, Neera Tanden, and Antonio Weiss with Michael Ettlinger, Seth Hanlon, Michael Linden December 2012 WWW.AMERICANPROGRESS.ORG Reforming Our Tax System, Reducing Our Deficit Roger Altman, William Daley, John Podesta, Robert Rubin, Leslie Samuels, Lawrence Summers, Neera Tanden, and Antonio Weiss with Michael Ettlinger, Seth Hanlon, Michael Linden December 2012 Note from the authors: As in any collaborative process, there has been much give and take among the participants in developing this final product. We all subscribe to the analysis and principles articulated here, to the need for revenue levels at the level proposed, and to the need for spending reductions. We also generally agree with the provisions of the plan. There may be specific matters, however, on which some of us have different views. Contents 1 Introduction and summary 5 On the need for more revenue 6 Why the additional revenue must come from high-income households 9 A progressive tax reform 11 Tax rates 12 Cleaning up the tax code 15 Simplifying filing 16 Other taxes 17 The spending side of the equation 20 Bottom line 22 About the authors 24 Acknowledgements 25 Endnotes Introduction and summary There are very few things everyone in Washington can agree on these days. But the one notion that will get heads nodding across the political spectrum is that today’s fiscal policies simply are not sustainable. If we keep doing what we’ve been doing, not only will the federal budget stay permanently deep in the red but critical public investments such as education and infrastructure will continue to go underfunded.

Follow this and additional works at: https://scholarship.law.georgetown.edu/facpub Part of the Judges Commons Charles Fahy Charles Fahy received a Bachelor of Laws degree from Georgetown in 1914. He attended school in the evenings while working in the day as legal secretary to Joseph J. Darlington, then a leader of the local bar. His secretarial skills must have helped him take law school notes, for a half- century later, as a sitting judge, he was still taking notes of oral arguments in shorthand. At the Law School-it had not yet assumed the more pretentious title of Law Center-he was active on the first staff of the Georgetown Law Journal, the Debating Society, the Morris Club, the members of which practiced brief writing and oral advocacy skills, and the Law School Sodality, an organization that actively combined the Catholic religion and the law. Upon graduation his peers noted in the class yearbook, Ye Domesday Booke, that he was "Young in limbs, in judgment old." The description under his graduation picture was quite prescient: He isn't very large-neither was Napoleon-nor is he very noisy, but the brain does not talk. He is familiar with the legal atmos- phere, likes it, and if hard work and good sense are due to win, Charlie will some day earn the deserved plaudits of a larger and more appreciative assemblage than ours.
