PERSONAL INCOME TAX

The personal income tax must be rewritten to be simplified, more equitable and with lower rates. We must start with a reasonable base amount of earnings where a graduated income tax begins. No tax differential for marriage. No exemptions. No itemized deductions. Why should a tenant, who cannot buy a home, pay more income tax than a home owner? Our current personal income tax gives an incentive for people to borrow, instead of to save.

A simplified income tax will reduce the filing burden and preparation costs on taxpayers, and reduce the role of the Internal Revenue Service.

The United States Congress must pass a law limiting state sales tax and state income tax to 5% for each, and a law making it illegal for state and local governments to demand or request copies of – or even view – anyone’s individual U. S. Federal Income Tax Return.

PROPERTY ASSESSMENT

Property assessment is a sham. It is like a novel that may incorporate

historical figures and events; but, never the less, is pure fiction.

Only the market place can determine the value of property. A uniform and equal rate of property assessment and taxation is essential. Our property assessment system has been the source of controversy and litigation for decades because it is chronically un‑uniform and unequal. The United States Congress must pass a law limiting the amount of annual assessed property valuation increases by state and local governments until the property is either sold or major improvements made. This reference is to California Proposition 13, passed in 1978, limiting the amount of annual assessed property valuation increases to 2% until the property is either sold or major improvements made.

It is the responsibility of the United States Congress to
pass a law that will protect citizens from these unconscionable,
over inflated property assessed valuations that are, in reality,
only a surrogate for increasing tax revenue.

By over spending and over taxation, government has put this country into a depression and created an underground economy. At the present time, federal, state and local governments in the United States borrow 80% of the world’s savings.
