CIO Proposes Tax Cut Aid to Low and Middle Incomes
The CIO calls for higher taxes on the wealthy and corporations while reducing the burden on low and middle income families. It advocates a $3000 personal exemption for couples plus $600 per dependent, totaling about $4200 for a four member family, funded by an excess profits tax on corporations. The plan favors expanding exemptions over cutting rates and targets reforms in excises and the structure of federal taxes.
