Comment: This plan would be quite a tax increase for me. I earn a six-figure income, but I have so arranged my affairs so that I legally pay well under 10% of that in taxes (including income tax and both the employee and employer payroll taxes [Social Security, Medicare, and unemployment]).
Response: This comment reaffirms our contention that the current system is NOT progressive – although our legislators make the pretense that it is. Yes, this ComingTogether Plan would include a substantial tax increase for you, which would be partially offset by the benefits that you would receive under the plan. You would also benefit from fewer forms to fill out and an economy improved by the reduction in government interference.
