#U.S. lawmaker proposes abolishing the IRS#

U.S. Congressman Buddy Carter recently introduced a bill that seeks to abolish the Internal Revenue Service (IRS) and, in the process, eliminate income tax, payroll tax, estate tax, and gift tax. The proposal has sparked widespread attention and discussion. Carter argues that the current tax system is overly complex and places a heavy burden on taxpayers, and that abolishing the IRS and related taxes would simplify the tax system and ease the burden on taxpayers. However, the proposal faces significant challenges. First, abolishing the IRS would mean the government loses a major source of revenue, which would put immense pressure on government finances. Second, eliminating income tax and other taxes would render the government unable to provide sufficient funds for public services, such as education, healthcare, and infrastructure development. Furthermore, some experts believe Carter's proposal is too radical to be feasible. Currently, the proposal lacks widespread support, and its ultimate fate remains unclear.
