Tax reform
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Tax reform is the process of changing the way taxes are collected or managed by the government.
Tax reformers have different goals. Some seek to reduce the level of taxation of all people by the government. Some seek to make the tax system more/less progressive in its effect. Some may be trying to make the tax system more understandable, or more accountable. Many organizations have been setup to reform tax systems worldwide, often with the intent to reform Income taxes or Value Added Taxes into something considered more economically liberal. Other propose tax systems that attempt to deal with externalities.
Various tax proposals have been presented. Among these have been the Flat Tax, FairTax, NESARA, Value Added Tax, Land Value Tax and many others.
