Bill Archer: “There is no reason why the Tax Code cannot be one that is not forever changing because things are expiring.”

I have always been in opposition to the alternative minimum tax. It made no sense.

Tax reform gives us the opportunity to address these matters, to ease frustrations, and to restore faith and confidence in our tax systems.

I don't think we can afford to charge our kids and our grandkids with tax cuts that we give out today.

Well, clearly the 1986 tax reform took a lot of time to put together, and in the end, it prevailed with some very hard-hitting pressures from the top on both sides.
