Assignment - 1 -Research Topics with Explanation
The topic on tax alteration for people earning over $250000 annually was selected because it was an important factor to consider in the presidential campaign of 2012. Many governments have high regard for tax cuts since it stimulates economic growth (Merino, 2011). Various government officials and the Congress form the target audience since they perform the functions of legislation and law amendments in the United States. Various economic experts and the Congress should therefore, advice on the effects and most appropriate changes on price cuts (Boorts & Linder, 2005). There should be tax cuts on incomes above $250000 as they stimulate a country’s economic growth and reduces the taxpayers’ burden.
