National Sustainable Consumption Tax Policy (NSCT)

Purpose:

Replace federal income taxes and abolish the IRS by implementing a transparent, consumption-based tax system that promotes sustainability, fairness, and simplicity.

Key Features:

  1. Abolition of Income Taxes & IRS:

All federal income and capital gains taxes will be eliminated, and the IRS dissolved.

  1. National Consumption Tax:

A uniform consumption tax will apply to new products and services, collected at point-of-sale. Exemptions include essential goods (e.g., food, healthcare) and used, refurbished, or renewable products, promoting sustainability.

  1. Progressive Tax Structure:

Higher-income earners, who purchase more new luxury items, will contribute more tax, creating a progressive system that ensures fairness.

  1. Link to Government Spending:

Tax revenue will be tied directly to a fixed percentage of government spending, ensuring transparency. Tax rates will be adjusted based on economic conditions, within a capped range.

  1. Simplicity & Transparency:

No tax returns or complicated filings. The consumption tax will be automatically collected and visible to consumers, making the system straightforward for both businesses and individuals.

  1. Environmental & Economic Benefits:

Encourages the use of sustainable products and long-lasting goods. Manufacturers will innovate to avoid heavy taxes on disposable items, promoting eco-friendly practices. Savings and investment will increase due to the absence of income tax.

Conclusion:

The NSCT policy simplifies tax collection, promotes fairness, and encourages sustainability, while protecting lower-income households through exemptions on necessities and fostering a more eco-conscious economy.
