An Open Letter To The Public From
Henry Block Of H&R Block
Regarding Income Tax Rebates.
Following the announcement of President Ford's proposed income tax rebate
plan for individuals, I recommended an alternate plan to both the President
and Congressional leaders. I believe my plan is more equitable and would
maximize the economic impact. Here's how I compare the two plans:
THE FORD PLAN:
1. Would give flat 12 percent rebates
totaling sl2 billion.
2. Would give a maximum SI,OOO rebate to
those with an income tax of $8,333.
(Most taxpayers with incomes of $40,000
or more would receive a SI,OOO rebate.)
3. Would give the largest rebates to those
who are least likely to spend the money.
4. Would base the tax rebate on the
amount of the 1974 tax paid.
WHAT SHOULD YOU DO?
WRITE THE PRESIDENT, YOUR REPRESENTATIVES AND SENATORS - Make your
views known, whichever plan you prefer. They are the ones who will pass and approve
such legislation.
FILE EARL\ The Internal Revenue Service is urging taxpayers to file their returns early.
It is likely that the sooner the return is filed the sooner the taxpayer will receive any rebate
permitted by new legislation. And, if you are entitled to a regular tax refund . . . the sooner
you file, the sooner you wall receive it.
If you have any questions about your income taxes . . . visit or call any
one of our more than 7,000 offices nationwide. There is never a charge for
tax information or for answering your questions.

THE BLOCK PLAN:

determined by Congress.
2. Would give a maximum 40% tax rebate
at lowest income levels declining to zero
for those with an Adjusted Gross In
come in excess of $40,000.
3. Would give the largest rebates to low
and middle income persons most in need
of tax relief and most likely to spend
the money.
4. Would base the tax rebate percentage
on Adjusted Gross Income and then
apply it to the tax...eliminating addi
tional tax advantage to those already
benefiting from tax shelters.
