Steve Forbes View of the Flat Tax : A 5 page
paper
discussing the fairness of the various tax proposals
suggested by Steve Forbes during his presidential campaign
in 1996. He favored replacing the current income tax
system with a flat tax under which all Americans would pay
the same rate of tax on income and would have eliminated
the possibility of deductions. The liberal view, particularly
of those without a working knowledge of economics, was
that such a scheme would favor the rich and that, as such, it
was unfair. That charge proves to be unfounded, however.
It is the issue of fairness of the proposed changes that is the
focus of the paper. Bibliography lists 8 sources.
