In this conversation with Jan Miyasaki, he discusses the Working Americans Tax Cut Act introduced in the House of Representatives by Rep.

The Act would exempt from federal income tax the first $46,000 of income for American individuals, save them ~$3000 yearly, and ultimately reduce wealth inequality.
