ECONOMICS

Representative Sam Johnson: "Working to Reduce Your Tax Burden" I believe that our current tax code is economically destructive, impossibly complex, and overly intrusive. It has impeded our ability to create jobs, encourage savings and investment, and realize the American dream. This is illustrated by the fact that our current tax code has grown from 11,000 words to over 7 million. According to West Publishing, who is an official publisher of the tax code, it takes two volumes and 1,168 pages to publish the code, plus, an additional 6,439 pages of Federal Tax Regulations that apply to income taxes. To make it easier to comply with these regulations, the IRS has created about 480 forms with an additional 280 to explain how to fill out the 480. I think this is ridiculous. That is why this system should not be changed, but replaced... What is Representative Johnson's point of view on tax policy?
