implement a sliding marginal tax rate that reacts automatically to increase or decrease taxes based on the economy.

Created by R.B. on November 15, 2012

I (we) would like for tax policy in the United States of America to be dictated by the state of the economy and not the opinions of those that rule the Nation.

Please design and implement a tax system that responds to the economy based on size of the labor force, unemployment rate and economic growth. When the economy is good raise the marginal tax rates across the board, when the economy is bad lower them across the board. The rates should change automatically at the end of each fiscal year based upon the health of the economy and not the popularity of a particular political party or politician.

This very simple plan would maximize Federal revenues during economic booms and allow for speedy recoveries during periods full of economic woes.
