Would You Vote For Me - Part 1

With all the talk about who is going to be our next President, I thought I might share my own platform for President.

Part 1 - Tax Policy:

I've worked hard my whole life to acheive what I feel is my own personal success. My first job (age 11)  was sweeping hair and cleaning windows for the barber down the street making $5.00 on a saturday. Anyone from the IRS reading this, I confess to you now,  that income was not reported.

  • Personal: Everyone would have a percentage based on a formula: Income(s) + Investment Profits - Education Expenses - 50% Utility Expenses = Taxable Income. 
  • Businesses: Profit = Taxable Income (Provision will be made to prevent companies from claiming higher losses than actual.)
  • Taxable Income x Flat Tax Rate of 22% = Taxes Owed
  • $5,000 Credit for each child
  • No Marriage Penalty
  • If you donate to Education, you can deduct every cent.
  • 25% of charitable donations, plus the satisfaction of helping someone.

Aside from a predetermined percentage of taxes going toward necessities such as education, safety, military, roads, parks, etc., each taxpayer will fill out a form that allows them to choose which social programs your taxes go to. 

Read my lips...no new taxes unless something happens that requires an increase, in which case it will be necessary so please vote for me even if i need to raise taxes but hope i won't because i want your vote!
