An analysis of the "Mother of All Tax Bills" (H.R.
3970, The Tax Reduction and Reform Act of 2007) reveals that the U.S.
economy will suffer huge losses in gross domestic product, job creation
and personal income if this bill is passed into law. Analysts at the
Center for Data Analysis estimated the economic costs of H.R. 3970
by looking at the combined effects of provisions contained within the
legislation along with the effects of allowing the Bush Tax Cuts of
2001 and 2003 to expire. In 2012, alone, the U.S. economy stands to
lose $108.2 billion in gross domestic product and will lose 955,000
jobs that would have otherwise been created. In addition, there will
be a loss of approximately $247 billion in disposable personal income – an
average loss in income of over $2000 per household in the United States.
