The Budget Charade
Thanks to double-digit Inflat-
ion, Washington's tax collectors
are laughing all the way to the
bank. With your money.
Tax collectors had a big
month in April. Tax payments
gave the government its first
monthly budget surplus this
year, according to Treasury
Department figures - $52.2 bill-
ion in tax receipts, or almost $10
billion higher than April a year
ago.
Tax receipts from last Oct. 1,
when the fiscal year commenc-
ed, through April teta]ed $253.8
'billion, compared with $212.4
billion for the same period in
1978 - a whopping increase of
$41.4 billion or almost 20
percent.
According to the Chamber of
Commerce of the United States,
double-digit inflation already
. has helped reduce the size of the
federal budget deficits for fis-
cal 1979 and 1980 by extracting
larger tax payments from work-
era' paychecks and from cor-
porate profits.
Inflation pushes people into
lands, whose names unknown to
the plaintiff, and who are made
parties to the complaint filed in
this action by the general des-
cription of unknown defendants

do serve upon David L. Zieg.

higher tax brackets as they
obtain pay increases trying to
offset inflation. Thus, a larger
percentage of their earnings
goes for income taxes.
Dr. Jack Carlson, chief econ-
omist of the U.S. Chamber,
estimates $15 billion in higher
federal revenues helped bring:
down the 1979 deficit, to
billion. In January, 1978, the
budget deficit was projected by
President Carter at $61 billion.
A slower rate of federal spend-
ing, some appropriation chan-
ges by Congress, and s small-
er.than-expected reduction in
revenues from the 1978 tax cut
voted by Congress accounted
for the remainder of the
billion redtiction in the estimat-
ed deficit.
"This is not what taxpayers
bad in mind when they adopted
tax- cutting proposals like Pro-
position 13 and the host of other
tax protest measures, "said Dr.
Carlson. "They want control of
spending, not higher taxes ."
Now Congress is counting on
at least $5 billion in additional
revenues- again largely due to
inflation - to hold down the size
of the deficit for fiscal 1980,
which begins Oct. I.
Estimated at $29 billion in
January, the deficit for the new
fiscal year now will be $23
billion, according to the I
budget resolution just adopted
by Congress. This resolution
sets targets on spending and
revenues and the size of the
projected deficit.
But when a group of House
members thought it would be a
good idea to let the public in on
the sleight of figures by which
the deficit is reduced, the House
voted dawn the amendment, 112
to56.
Rap. John M. Ashbrook (
R-Ohio), who sponsored the am-
en.dment, said it would be help-
ful if the House Budget Com-
mittee would bring in a speciaJ
report indicating anticipated in- '
creases in revenues in the en-
suing year, with the portion of ,
such increases attributed to in- •
fiation, growth in GNP (Gross
National Product) etc.
"It is , in fact, a truth in
government bill," said Rap.
Bar-
ber B. Conable, Jr. (R-N.Y.) 6,
one of its supporters in the floor
debate. "This simply requires.. _
the committee on the Budget to .
report the tax increases that
occur not by action of the.
Congress but as a result of,
inflation or other reasons, and Jt
permits also the inclusion of a -.
statement estimating the im-
pact of each of the items so
specified on individual taxpay"
ers according to family size and :,
income level... " "'" :

But is this any way to fight the '
war against inflation?
Strong Defense On Proflts i
American business, in de-
lense of profits, has gone on the
offensive, most notably through .
efforts of the Chamber of Com- '
meres of the United States. In a
recent analysis of U.S. corp-
orate profits, pungently titled,
"The Inadequacy of profits/'°
Dr. Jack Carlson, the Chamber i
's chief economist, explains that
corporate profits declined by
almost. 30 percent, comparing .;
first quarter 1979 profits with :
final quart 1978 profits.
Actually, when measured bY
the most meaningful yardstick-
profits per unit of' output -
corporate profits have been de- - I
clining for 15 years, Dr. Carl- • i
son points out. Nor is there any "
sign of a reversal of the trend.
Yet, without adequate profits, :
we cannot hope to turn the tide.:
against either infiaiton or sl-'
umping productivity.
"Profits from current prod-
uction par unit of output ve
been so low as to discomage
investment in modern machines
and building," Dr. Cadson
says. "This means our worlters
are handicapped by inadequate
equipment , machinery and
tools, with the result that pro-
ductivity has slowed and init
ion has worsened."
AS part of the new offense on
profits, Dr. Carlson has chall-
enged the White House-or
anyone else for that matter- o
prove, if they can, that poftts
are causing inflation. As yet,lno
takers.
