Further, heâ€"can‘t deduct eve this amount from the tax he must payâ€"he can deduct it only from his income before figuring the tax due. Why not let expense, not from his income before he figures the tax, but from the tax itself? f Plans March Meeting At Ravinia School Citizens Committee _ Of course, this system wouldn‘t add any payrolâ€" lers to the Fair Deal ranks, and it wouldn‘t let .the government wrap the fingers of bureaucracy around the medical profession. It would just give the taxâ€" payers a break. f : f | .For example, a married man with one child, makâ€" ing $65.00 a week, pays $208 a year in withholding tax. Under present income tax regulations he can deduct any medical expense over $169,00, from his income. Thus, if he spends $200.00 in a year, he can deduct only $31.00. However, because he can deduct this amount only from his income, the actual tax reâ€" duction is very slight. If he could deduct the entire amount from his tax, he would get a rebate of $200.00 on his $208.00 withholding payment. * _+~If the government is really sincere in its proâ€" fessed desire to lighten the burden of medical costs on the public in general, there is one step that it could take immediately without interfering in any way with the operation of the most efficient medical system in the world. â€" + e MEDICAL AID f-mmwnc.h'h| Vol. 39 : No. 2 â€" The Highland Park Press | 21, at have no reply from the caucus candidate for the presidency of districts and (2) the disposition of the unexpended $1,400,000 in the cepted as establishing the facts of the school situation. issues involved are of prime imâ€" portance and that they are (1) "The questions which the Votâ€" ers‘ League submitted to you were based upon issues established by the report of Dr. H.
