E1C: Strategic Objective E1C
Improve and Simplify the Tax Code Other Information:
Treasury is committed to improving and simplifying tax laws and administrative guidance in a manner consistent with important
tax policy goals such as fairness, efficiency, and effective enforcement. A more fair tax code would treat similarly situated
taxpayers the same and provide an equitable distribution of the tax burden among taxpayers with different abilities to pay.
A more economically neutral and rational tax system would allocate labor and capital to their most productive uses, reduce
interference with economic incentives, and be more conducive to economic growth. A simpler tax system would reduce the significant
cost of tax compliance for businesses and individuals and reduce the intrusiveness of tax administration.
