Origin of the Alternative Minimum Tax - 1969 (yes, the same year as Woodstock)
Content of the article:
“Subchapter A of chapter 1 (relating to determination of tax liability) is amended by adding at the end thereof the following new part:
“Part VI – Minimum Tax for Tax Preferences
“Sec. 56. Imposition of tax.
“In addition to the other taxes imposed by this chapter, there is hereby imposed for each taxable year, with respect to the income of every person, a tax equal to 10 percent of the amount (if any) by which….”
With these words, and President Richard Nixon’s stroke of a pen on December 30, 1969, the monster parent of the current day Alternative Minimum Tax was born. Not unlike Dr. Frankenstein’s monster, the creators of the AMT had no concept of what its unfortunate consequences ultimately would turn out to be.
History generally attributes the origin of a minimum tax to testimony by Secretary of the Treasury Joseph Barr in Congressional committee hearings on the 1969 Tax Reform Act. In a comment that resulted in much publicity, and a general outcry from politicians and common folk alike, he noted that a whopping 155 people with adjusted gross incomes of over $200,000 had paid no taxes on their 1967 tax returns.
Of course, when a “good” idea like this originates, many people are anxious to take credit. Among the many of us back in D.C. who didn’t make it up to Woodstock, President Nixon himself claimed to have had the idea. From his Statement on Signing the Tax Reform Act of 1969:
“Eight months ago, I submitted a sweeping set of proposals to the Congress for the first major tax reform in 15 years, one which would make our tax system more fair.
“In terms of long-overdue tax reform, most of my major reform proposals were adopted.
“A large number of high-income persons who have paid little or no Federal income taxes will now bear a fairer share of the tax burden through enactment of a minimum tax comparable to the proposal that I submitted to the Congress, which closes the loopholes that permitted much of this tax avoidance.”
From this simple “fix” of the 155 non-taxpayer problem 40 years ago, the monster has evolved to where recent IRS statistics show that over 4 million taxpayers currently are paying the AMT!

Her previous research has focused on how infants pick up information from different media sources, television, siblings, adults, and different contexts. Most recently, Barrs studies focus on factors that might enhance infant learning from television. Author: Surhone, Lambert M./ Timpledon, Miriam T./ Marseken, Susan F.

Roseanne Barr: Blonde and Bitchin' - $14.99 Roseanne Barr: Blonde and Bitchin' originally aired exclusively on HBO but is now available in this home-video release. In Barr's first comedy special in over 14 years, the sitcom mainstay, movie star, and acid-mouthed comedienne-at-large returns to her standup act -- the venue that originally launched her into superstardom in the early '80s -- before a jam-packed, enthusiastic audience. In the process, Barr hilariously touches on a myriad of controversial topics. From the Oval Office doings of George W. Bush to the hot-button issue of gay marriage, nothing is off-topic or too sensitive. ~ Nathan Southern, Rovi |
