What is the best way to lower my tax rate? I hope the new batch of issues will have some that provide ways to lower taxes.

Speaking of which is anyone editing new issues right now?

Sorry for all the questions. :)

The best way to lower the tax rate is to cut funding to various parts of the government via answering issues in certain ways.

From experience I think taxes also go down when the economy improves and vice versa, which makes since

so also improve your economy

No, not necessarly. My taxes have remained constant from Basket-case economy to Powerhouse.

Issue options that include the words "tax cut" tend to lower taxes; issue options that fund business tend to lower taxes; issue options that slash funding for a government department tend to lower taxes.

If all else fails, prostrate yourself on the ground and offer supplications and prayers to the Capitalist God. Eventually, one of His messengers may appear and either instruct you in the art of lowering your tax rate, or make you do something embarrassing and silly that you will spend the rest of your life trying to shake. I'm not sure what the difference is between the two yet.

Thank you for all the information. But there doesn't seem to be many issues that lower taxes.

I've got the issue dealing with military spending right now. Any tips on which option I should choose for the best result in the tax department?

In this case, if you cut funding for the military, the taxes will drop.

I have 100% tax, mainly because I'm very concerned with putting lots of money into schools, hospitals etc. and I'm rather anti-business.

I'm cool with it.

And my economy's listed as 'Fair', even with the 100%.

*shrugs*

My two cents (it's about all I've got).

You can get a Frightening (highest level) economy with 100% taxes. It's what I've had for quite a long time. Mind you, I am extremely pro-business with this nation.
