the case of taxable years beginning after December
31, 2000, rules similar to the rules of section
1(h)(2) shall apply for purposes of subparagraphs
(B) and (C).’’.
(d) EFFECTIVE DATES.—
(1) IN GENERAL.—Except as provided by para-
graph (2), the amendments made by this section
shall apply to taxable years beginning after Decem-
ber 31, 2000.
(2) WITHHOLDING.—The amendment made by
subsection (a)(3)(B) shall apply to amounts paid
after the date of the enactment of this Act.
Æ
(1) Withholding of income taxes originally was
imposed as a means of meeting financial burdens
created by World War II; the Treasury Department
believed taking tax payments directly from workers’
paychecks would make it easier to fund government
without objection from taxpayers.
(2) Income tax liabilities have increased expo-
nentially since the imposition of withholding of in-
come taxes. Withholding taxes now represent a very
substantial portion of working taxpayers’ paychecks.
(3) Withholding of income taxes is inherently
deceptive, because taxpayers often are not aware of
the total amount of Federal taxes they pay or what
percentage of their income they pay in Federal
taxes. Thus, withholding taxes hide the true cost of
government from taxpayers, making tax increases
more feasible.
(4) Many taxpayers overpay their Federal in-
come taxes every year through withholding taxes.
The tax refund they receive is their own money, pre-
sumptively taken by the Federal Government. Be-
cause taxpayers receive no interest on overpaid with-
holding taxes, the Federal Government benefits from
an interest-free loan of taxpayer funds. Taxpayers
tions for employees of rural law enforcement
agencies.
(c) POWERS.—In carrying out subsection (b), the Ex-
ecutive Director may—
(1) request the head of any Federal department
or agency to detail, on a reimbursable basis, 1 or
more employees of the Federal department or agency
to the Center to assist the Center in carrying out
subsection (b), and any such detail shall be without
interruption or loss of civil service status or privi-
lege;
(2) request the Administrator of the General
Services Administration to provide the Center, on a
reimbursable basis, the administrative support serv-
ices necessary for the Center to carry out subsection
(b); and
(3) procure temporary and intermittent services
under section 3109(b) of title 5, United States Code,
at rates of compensation established by the Board,
but not to exceed the daily equivalent of the max-
imum rate of pay payable for a position at level IV
of the Executive Schedule under section 5315 of title
5, United States Code.
