By Rep. Kevin Brady Americans are clearly overtaxed.
Federal taxes are the highest ever during peacetime.
In fact, Americans pay more in taxes than they spend on food, clothing and housing combined. It takes four months each year for Americans to pay their tax bills. Moreover, the American people are anxious about the economy. Recent layoffs by businesses of every size prove that the American economy needs a boost and needs it now. Thanks to President Bush, help is on the way.
