Brendan (can/do)(@BrendanFoody):I wrote an essay about how we should eliminate income tax for the bottom half of Americans a few years ago. It would reduce an enormous burden on hundreds of millions of Americans and cost ~3% of government revenue. Jobs are the largest positive externality in the economy, yet we disincentivize them with payroll + income tax. While this feels like one of the most impactful policy proposals to help Americans, most politicians would rather squander the money on inefficient government programs. This is the best way to support lower and middle-class families.
