Purpose of the Tax Code

Posted by taxguru on April 3, 2006

 

From Ohio CPA Dana Stahl:

Mr Guru – I found this article from 3 years ago by Dr Jack Wheeler on the tax code.  Quite observant!

The U.S. tax code is purposefully not designed to maximize economic prosperity. Its express purpose is to maximize politicians’ power – power to extort contributions as protection money, and power to make people dependent on government subsidies, thus gaining the vote of those so dependent.
