Then why aren't you touting Ben Carson as the Republican nominee? Remember Steven Forbes and his tax plan?
A Simple, Transparent and Fair Tax System for All Americans | Official Ben Carson for President 2016
Treatment Plan: Repeal the Entire Tax Code and Replace It With a True 14.9 Percent Flat Tax
- Replace the tax code with a true flat tax â?? no deductions, tax shelters or loopholes.
- Tax all income at a uniform 14.9 percent rate.
- To protect those rising from poverty, apply the flat tax only to income above 150 percent of the Federal Poverty Level (FPL). For example, a family of four will not pay the 14.9 percent tax on their first $36,375 of income.
- Treat everyone in America as citizen-owners and require those whose income is at or below 150 percent of the FPL to make a de minimis tax payment annually.
- Tax income only once: no more double taxation of capital gains, dividends and interest income at the personal level.
- Eliminate deductions for home mortgage interest, charitable giving and state and local taxes. The overwhelming majority of Americans do not benefit from these itemized deductions.
- Eliminate the Alternative Minimum Tax (AMT). Under the current tax system, the AMT forces middle-class Americans to calculate their tax liability twice and punishes them by requiring them to pay the larger of the two tax bills.
- Abolish the death tax in its entirety.
