Comment: I am an individual: Dean Geules 17828 Nordhoff St., Northridge, CA 91325 818-886-6675 email: dino747@pacbell.net I support a graduated flat tax for everyone except the poor. They should have a lower flat tax. People who earn over $250,000 a year should pay more. I also would be in favor of a VAT. There should be NO Deductions, period. I AM AGAINST child credits, deductions and allowances. This is totally UNFAIR to childless people. If you must give a deduction, do it for the 1st child, less money for the second, nothing for the third or more. Again: Please remove the child allowance. It is nothing more than free money or a bribe to people who should shoulder the financial responsibility and joys of parenthood themselves. I already give them money for thier childs schooling in other state taxes. Thank you, Dean Geules |
