Can you point me to a document that outlines this in the manner you speak? Because that is not what I have here. What my document (which is not online unfortunately) implies is that "replealing the marriage penalty" will mean that if one spouse works with a non-working spouse, then they will receive favorable tax treatment vs. two singles. Example single person makes 100K and spouse makes 40K. Roughly for 2 single people, 100K taxed at 36% (is it?) and 40K 33% Otoh, a married couple with a combined 130K income don't bump to that 36% threshold. The lower income pulls the total down. Is this not the case? I am in favor of the same treatment for married couples vs. singles, as well as just simplifying the whole thing.
