Tax revision plan proposes income tax cuts and new levies
Senators Walsh and Gerry offer amendments to cut individual rates for $15 000 or less and levy a one cent a gallon gasoline tax at source. They propose a graduated corporate tax, starting at 16 percent up to 20 percent, to offset losses from lowering individual rates and retain a capital stock tax about 60.9 million dollars annually. The plan argues fairness by easing small private and corporate taxpayers while taxing large corporations more.
