Tax plan expands credits and cuts estate taxes
A conference plan would widen the personal income tax credit for retirement income and allow tax-free group legal plans while raising taxes on the wealthy. It would limit deductions for tax shelters and sharply cut the number of estates taxed, moving to a gift and estate credit rising to 50,000 and shielding up to half the estate for spouses. The package targets family farms and small businesses, with an effective tax rate from 30 to 70 percent on estates, costing the Treasury about 31.4 billion annually by 1981.
