Visualizing the Romney Tax Debate
Visualizing the Romney Tax DebateâTax reform has emerged as a major bone of contention in the 2012 Presidential election campaign. While President Obama has identified some tax changes, Governor Romney proposes major systemic reform. But is his plan - especially the proposals for individual taxation - viable?âF1CEB7

Growth effect small »
Growth effect small
Growth effect smallâIn replying to this criticism the TPC cites research by the CBO and the Treasury department indicating the growth effect of Romneys proposals is likely to be small because the base-broadening measures will provide opposing incentives to the rate cuts -and would be small even without broadening.âFFFACD

Brill and Viard study
Brill and Viard studyâThe TPC cites a study by Alan Viard and Alex Brill indicating that lowering tax rates while broadening the base generally does not reduce work disincentives because it leaves effective tax rates unchanged. Elsewhere Brill has defended the Romney plan.âFFFACD

Conclusion is robust »
Conclusion is robust
Conclusion is robustâWhile maintaining the claimed growth increment from the Romney plan is likely to be slight, the TPC analysis does consider whether growth predicted by Mankiw (a Romney backer) and Weinzeri would rescue the plan. They conclude it makes little difference.âFFFACD
