October 15 would put it right before the elections in November. The memory of having to write that check (especially before the holidays) would be fresh in the voters minds when they go to vote.
Just think of it as a gift..
Truth in Taxes Act of 2020:
1. Make taxday the first Monday in November.
2. Abolish withholding - make people write the whole check at once
3. Make the “employers” part of SS & Medicare part of the employees paycheck. Have to write that check in November too.
4. Make the front cover of the tax forms two pie charts - where the $$ come from and where they go. The next year we’ll pass the “ No Representation without Taxation” act of 2021 and cut it half again.
The truth shall make us free. We’ll cut our tax burden in half in one year.
