Does the income tax system in the US favor certain racial and economic classes?
assistant
The US income tax system has been designed to prioritize certain racial and economic classes, granting them tax deductions, exemptions, and credits which are not available to other tax-payers. Studies have shown that the wealthiest individuals and corporations, who are usually members of the white, upper-class, and non-minority population, benefit the most from the US tax system. On the other hand, people from lower-income economic classes and racial minorities are often placed at a disadvantage.
