(.hir.hon ~ A Tax Plan For Our Time I do about Grand Valley buying a bar in Grand Rapids?

By Dennis Williams News USA

During his election campaign, George Bush promised no new taxes or rate increases. He also said he wantedjo lower capital gains taxes. Despite this, nearly everyone in Washington has joined a loud chorus insisting that taxes must be raised. Washington needs the money, they say. What most people don't realize is that Mr. Bush can cut tax rates just like Ronald Reagan did, but without reducing revenues. w m m T W \ 1 No fancy supply-side claims, just simple arithmetic. 1- V It is hardly a secret that anyone with enough money and skill can avoid taxes year after year. People working at the minimum wage still pay more money in taxes than many millionaires and billon ' V V. * * t . dollar corporations. Our new leader could be the one to change that. •— ------— ------:------— ------— —-— Lynann Lowe Jo h n M cC ully Chris Berner If President Bush wants to reduce taxes on capital gains, why F r.

The act did reduce the number of tax brackets, but the rules and the number of forms increased. No one would call this a simple system. It isn't particularly fair, either. Wealthy people and large companies still avoid taxes. Tax cheating still goes on. Nevertheless, it was a step in the right direction. Now, let's take the next step. Let's revise the law to provide for a flat 10 percent tax on all income, with every adult's first $10,000 in income free from tax. — Such changes can’t easily be made ovenight, so let's reduce rates over a five-year period-to 18 percent the first year, then 16,14,12, and finally to 10 percent. Those who prefer the special privileges and credits of the current system (or who have lower rates due to exemptions) may continue to use it, provided that they pay a tax of at least 10 percent of their total income each year. You may be surprised to learn that this flat tax will actually eliminate the deficit-provided that expenditures are not increased Scott Rusticus Zautra Adams Cindy Bright markedly over the next four years. Fr. Criminal Justice Fr. Undecided Jr. APR The reason is simple. America's corporate taxes are not based on “I think it is a good acquisition “It’s fine with me if it’s needed.

If we had no money left at the end of the year-no problem. We would have no tax bill at all! This tax system has made our large companies wonderfully generous employers, but not the tough and trim companies we need to keep prices down at home and American sales up overseas. To give fairer treatment to those companies that keep costs 5 down, we should provide a fiat tax for corporations, too. Here, m N S . again, we will take five years to reach a 10 percent fiat tax, but this time we will be slowly raising the rate. The first year, companies will pay 2 percent of their total revenue in taxes. That rate will go to 4, 6, 8, and finally 10 percent after five years. These changes to our tax system will make our lives simpler. They will also help eliminate the federal deficit, without cutting essential spending for defense, housing, food, health care, or other vital programs. That should matUour creditors happy, our TfvcT easier, our compamcs tougher, and the federal dificit a problem of the past. Now all we have to do is convince our leaders.
