Book excerpt: This book is an overview of issues associated with the marriage penalty. The first section explains how the marriage penalty (and the marriage bonus) arises and why it is not possible to achieve simultaneously the goals of marriage neutrality and horizontal equity across families in a progressive tax system. The second section discusses the size of the marriage penalty, the bonus and importantly, the notion that the marriage penalty is not a precisely defined measure. The next section outlines the issues of equity, efficiency and simplicity that are part of the frame work for evaluating policy and the final section discusses various legislative proposals in light of these objectives. The book also estimates the effects of current tax policies on families of different types and sizes and analyses proposals to address the marriage penalty and the child tax credit. It contains a history of the development of tax provisions affecting the family.

Book Synopsis The Federal Government's War on Marriage AKA the Marriage Penalty Tax by : Floyd Carpenter
Download or read book The Federal Government's War on Marriage AKA the Marriage Penalty Tax written by Floyd Carpenter and published by . This book was released on 2014 with total page 40 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Empirical research has shown that public policy such as tax and transfer programs have had a deleterious effect on marital stability. This study analyzes the cost to individuals of various aspects of the marriage penalty tax (MPT) and thereby how it discourages marriage and how it harms both individuals and society at large. Decline of the family, especially married couples, is regarded as one of the critical problems facing American society. Past research indicates that the MPT, due to its negative impact on marital stability and two-parent families, results in major social and economic costs, such as higher rates of children living in poverty, lower education, higher unemployment, more crime, and poorer health. Given its harm, we conclude that the MPT should be eliminated from the tax code. Opponents to repealing the marriage penalty have complained that 'higher-income' taxpayers receive disproportionate benefit. However, this research shows that the MPT has an equally negative effect on couples in the lowest income categories, particularly with its impact on the earned income tax credit. Further, regardless of a couple's income level, the marriage penalty is detrimental to marriage, and thus, to society overall. Tax laws, as part of public policy, should foster, not hamper, two-parent families and their corresponding economic benefits such as improved employment, better public health, and lower crime.

Book excerpt: President Bush's tax proposal and H.R. 6 (passed by the House) have different approaches to the marriage penalty. The Administration proposal, in addition to rate changes, has a second-earner deduction for 10% of income (up to $30,000) earned by the lower earning spouse. H.R. 6 would increase the standard deduction and width of the 15% rate bracket for joint returns to twice the size of singles, eliminating the penalties for taxpayers in the 15% and 28% brackets but adding to any marriage bonuses. This report compares these alternative proposals. (H.R. 1836, signed by the President on June 7, includes these latter proposals along with rate cuts). Taxes can go up or down as a result of marriage, depending on the income of the two spouses. These penalties and bonuses arise from the progressive tax structure and the decision to impose taxes on a household basis. For much of the middle class, marriage penalties are low. For couples without children, the maximum marriage penalty at 2001 income levels for the 60% of taxable returns subject to the 15% marginal rate in 1997 is $225; most couples that itemize have no penalty at all. The second-earner deduction in the administration proposal virtually eliminates the marriage penalty for these couples. Even in the 28% rate, which covers another 26% of taxable returns, the second earner deduction along with the flatter rates results in no or negligible penalties. Overall, these taxpayers account for the middle 75% of joint returns. Taxpayers with children could have small remaining penalties, depending on how penalties are defined. Most of those in the 15% bracket who might have still have penalties that are significant relative to income are removed from the tax roles entirely through the additional child credits. Lower income couples may incur penalties through the Earned Income Credit (EIC) under either proposal, although it is difficult to address EIC marriage penalties and bonuses. The 12% of taxpayers in higher brackets may have remaining penalties. A large fraction of these returns do not have large penalties because their marginal tax rate is the flat capital gains tax rate. Any penalties are substantially reduced or eliminated, however, due to the lower rate structure in the Administration proposal. The important difference between H.R. 6 and the Administration proposal is that H.R. 6 expands marriage bonuses in most cases while the Administration proposal generally reduces them due to flatter tax rates. H.R. 6 combined with rate cuts would increase bonuses in comparison to the Administration proposal and, in many cases, in comparison to current law. Measurement of the marriage penalty for couples depends on the allocation of children for tax purposes. When married couples are compared with cohabitating singles, where issues of incentives and fairness suggest attention be focused, cohabitating singles are less likely to have children and when they do, have low incomes unlikely to be subject to regular income tax. Thus, the issues of measuring the marriage penalty for families may be relatively unimportant. This report will be updated to reflect legislative developments.
Book Synopsis The Middle Class Parent Penalty by : David T. Ellwood
Download or read book The Middle Class Parent Penalty written by David T. Ellwood and published by . This book was released on 2000 with total page 51 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Low-income families with children receive large tax benefits from the Earned Income Tax Credit, while high income taxpayers receive large tax benefits from dependent exemptions (whose value is greater to those in higher tax brackets). In contrast, middle-income parents receive substantially smaller tax benefits associated with children. This U-shaped pattern of benefits by income, which we call the middle-class parent penalty, ' not only raises issues of fairness; it also generates marginal tax rates and marriage penalties for moderate income families that are as high or higher than those facing more well-to-do taxpayers. This paper documents how the tax benefits of children vary with income, and illustrates their impact on marginal tax rates and marriage penalties. It then examines five options for reducing or eliminating the middle-class parent penalty and the high marginal tax rates and marriage penalties it produces
