A Rasmussen poll released this week found that a paltry 9 percent of those surveyed believe the United States has the best tax system in the world. To put this in perspective, a separate poll found that 6 times as many (54 percent) Icelanders believe that elves may exist.
Americans are overwhelmingly dissatisfied with our broken tax code. Chairman Dave Camp (R-MI) and the Committee on Ways and Means are committed to enacting comprehensive tax reform that leads to the best tax system in the world. Only then will what has seemed like an unobtainable fairy tale since the last recession – a strong U.S. economy with more jobs and higher wages for employees – become true.
