The Economic Case Against Tax Deductions

 

http://www.businessweek.com/articles/2013-04-14/the-economic-case-against-tax-deductions

 

In 2010, the IRS reports (PDF) that itemized deductions totaled $1.2 trillion dollars—compared with total nationwide adjusted gross incomes of $8.1 trillion. The two biggest sources of deductions were taxes (mostly state, local, and real estate) totaling $445 billion and interest (nearly all on home mortgages) totaling $414 billion. Third on the list were charitable contributions, at $170 billion worth of deductions.

The Market for Charitable Giving by: John A. List

 

Many analysts suggest that if the charitable deduction were removed, people would give less to charity—perhaps even by as much as their tax bills would rise (PDF).
