Final Example Essay
When it comes to federal income tax in the United States some people are obviously more equal than others are. ...
Our tax system is unfair, complex, costly, and punishes work, saving and investing. Prior to 1913, there was no federal income tax because it wasnt constitutional. ... Today, the average American does not understand our tax system, and very few can even fill out the tax forms. ... There may be many reasons why our tax codes are so complex. ... But one over arching truth remains throughout; some Americans pay more federal income tax as a percentage of what they make than other Americans do and receive as a percentage the same benefits as everyone else. ... The three I selected include: the higher percentage of income tax that a single person pays; the graduated percentage increase as a persons income level goes up; and, the percentage of itemized deductions some people can take if they pick what the government says are fair and equitable.
If you are a single person in the United States your federal income tax liability, as a percentage of your income, is as much as 20% higher than person who is married, unmarried with children, or otherwise head of a household.
