Comment: I am in agreement to most of the suggestions coming from the Citizens for Tax Justice. That is 2 tax brackets of 15% for individual income of below $90,000 and $180,000 for couples. 28% for incomes above those levels. Writeoffs for charitable contributions up to 50% percent of total income, medical and health expenses not covered by insurance, and pre-school to 6th grade education espenses including day care would be allowed. Mortgage interest payments will not be allowed. Additional 15% percent of total income allowable writeoff for charitable contributions specific to education and/or public medical/health assistance.
