Good morning! The next administration will have its hands full in addressing the rising unemployment and the longer term economic effects of the pandemic. It will also have to address the wealth inequities in our country, the need for health security, and the mess that is our tax code. The tax code embodies many of our country’s priorities. Some provisions seek equity, some seek to improve behaviors toward those most desired by the state and some are just the result of excellent and aggressive lobbying of special interest groups. Few think the tax code isn’t sorely in need of reform.
