      Donald Trump on Monday proposed collapsing the federal income tax rate from seven brackets down to three and called for allowing child-care expenses to be exempt from taxation in a speech allies hope will help the GOP presidential nominee turn the page on a tumultuous period some Republicans fear has severely damaged his campaign.

      Overall, Trump offered few new details behind his economic vision, which he unveiled as a candidate last year. One notable exception was his call to enable families to "fully deduct" child-care expenses from their taxes. Some such expenses are already deductible; experts say that the additional amounts will largely benefit middle- and upper middle-class families.

      On tax rates, business mogul said he would work with House Republicans and use the same three brackets they have proposed: 12 percent, 25 percent and 33 percent. Previously, Trump proposed tax brackets of 0 percent, 10 percent, 20 percent and 25 percent.

      "For many American workers, their tax rate will be zero," said Trump.

      The GOP nominee continued to leave large question marks about how he would pay for his plans and avoid ballooning the federal budget deficit. He included no new details on how he would limit the cost of his tax reform plan, which analysts have estimated would reduce federal revenues by as much as $10 trillion over a decade. His child-care expense plan would presumably raise that cost even further.

      Trump released a tax plan last year that would reduce the top income tax rate from 39.6 percent to 25 percent and bring down the top corporate rate from 35 percent to 15 percent. The plan would eliminate the estate tax and reduce tax rates to 10 percent for households earning $100,000 or less.

      Trump also did not spell out any federal spending cuts. In his remarks, Trump said he would offer more details in the coming weeks.

  • A questão cobra interpretação de um texto sobre o colapso da alíquota do imposto de renda federal no governo de Donald Trump.

    Vamos analisar o trecho que trata sobre faixas do imposto sobre a renda, parágrafos 3 a 6:

    Tradução - Sobre as taxas de impostos, o magnata dos negócios disse que trabalharia com os republicanos da Câmara e usaria os mesmos três percentuais que eles propuseram: 12%, 25% e 33%. Anteriormente, Trump propôs faixas de impostos de 0 por cento, 10 por cento, 20 por cento e 25 por cento.
        "Para muitos trabalhadores americanos, sua alíquota de impostos será zero", disse Trump.
        O nomeado do Partido Republicano continuou a deixar grandes dúvidas sobre como ele pagaria por seus planos e evitaria o aumento do déficit orçamentário federal. Ele não incluiu novos detalhes sobre como limitaria o custo de seu plano de reforma tributária, que os analistas estimam que reduziria as receitas federais em até US $ 10 trilhões ao longo de uma década. Seu plano de despesas com creches provavelmente aumentaria esse custo ainda mais.
        Trump lançou um plano tributário no ano passado que reduziria a taxa máxima de imposto de renda de 39,6% para 25% e baixaria a taxa corporativa máxima de 35% para 15%. O plano eliminaria o imposto de propriedade e reduziria as taxas de imposto para 10 por cento para famílias que ganham US $ 100.000 ou menos.


    Voltando à questão e às alternativas, em relação às faixas do imposto sobre a renda, Donald Trump apresentou, no ano passado, um plano que propunha:

    A) Incorreto - isentar do imposto de renda pessoas físicas que ganhem menos de US$ 100.000 mensais. 
    O plano não isentaria, mas sim reduziria as taxas de imposto para 10 por cento para famílias que ganham US$ 100.000 ou menos.

    B) Incorreto - eliminar todos os impostos estaduais.
    O plano trata sobre impostos de renda a nível federal. 

    C) Correto - diminuir a faixa máxima do imposto de renda para pessoas jurídicas de 35% para 15%. 
    O plano tributário baixaria a taxa corporativa máxima de 35% para 15%.

    D) Incorreto - implantar apenas três faixas: 12%, 25% e 33%. 
    O que Trump propôs implantar foram faixas de impostos de 0 por cento, 10 por cento, 20 por cento e 25 por cento, mas no final aceitou concordar com os republicanos da Câmara e usar os mesmos três percentuais que eles propuseram: 12%, 25% e 33%.

    E) Incorreto - reduzir em 25% a faixa mais alta, atualmente de 39,6%. 
    Ele não propôs reduzir em 25%, mas sim para 25%.
