Have a Great Idea? Tax Reform Committee Wants Your Opinion & Ideas!

It’s here. You can stop waiting now. The age where the online socio-political arena is just as important (and way more volatile) as real life has finally come. Of course, there are benefits and drawbacks. Everyone knows the internet makes it easier for a person to say what he or she really thinks which leads to childish squabbles within comment streams (even on political sites). So, that’s a drawback. We see how childish we are, but from those spats real ideas can emerge. Not all commentators just want to call out another. The online political arena has seen so much success in regards to more active participation. The online petition site (https://petitions.whitehouse.gov/) had to up the number signatures required for presidential response from 25 thousand to 100 thousand. Still a threshold that can be reached, but it certainly makes it much harder to get a petition passed.

Now, more of your ideas can be heard and shared online. Senate Finance Committee Chairman Max Baucus (D-Mont.) and House Ways and Means Committee Chairman Dave Camp (R-Mich.) have launched https://taxreform.gov/, a website dedicated to comprehensive tax reform. This website provides the public an opportunity to provide ideas regarding tax reform. I already gave them my two cents (in addition to all my withholding). Now, it’s your turn. Have any great ideas? For the sake of your kids and your kids’ kids, take a minute to tell congress what’s on your mind relating to tax reform.
