Tax Plan Comparison Calculator
Including Social Security taxes*

This calculator compares the Bush tax rates to the existing rates for the 2001 tax year, and includes Social Security taxes. Categories in BOLDFACE are required entries. This program is an estimate, based on the tax rates released by the IRS and the White House. It does not take into account tax credits, the marriage penalty, capital gains, or the estate tax. This is an "applet" running only on your computer. No information is sent over the Internet. (Clicking in any box recalculates automatically)
