According to Graetz, the current U.S. income tax system is unfair and too complicated resulting in tax compliance going down. "The current status quo [of the U.S. income tax system] is not stable," he said. And then, he proceeded to outline his proposal to eliminate 100 million tax returns annually. This well-researched system would remove the need for annual filing for those making less than $100,000 per annum (joint)/$50,000 per annum (individual) and imposing a 10-15% VAT nationwide.
