Coinbase CEO Brian Armstrong Says DOGE Department Is A 'Once-In-A-Lifetime-Opprtunity,' Advocates Abolishing Individual Income Tax
Coinbase CEO Brian Armstrong has proposed eliminating individual income taxes in the U.S., suggesting a radical shift in the tax burden to businesses and alternative revenue sources like sales taxes.
Coinbase首席執行官布賴恩·阿姆斯特朗提議在美國取消個人所得稅,暗示將稅收負擔激進地轉移到企業及銷售稅等替代營收來源上。
What Happened: Armstrong's call, shared in a series of tweets on Sunday, aligns with his broader vision for reducing government size and enhancing economic freedom.
阿姆斯特朗在週日一系列推文中表示,他的看漲與他縮小政府規模、增強經濟自由的更廣泛願景一致。
"It's kind of crazy that we ask every adult in the U.S. to figure out how to pay their taxes," Armstrong tweeted, pointing to the complexity of the current tax code, which spans an estimated 150,000 pages.
「讓每位美國成年人都要想法支付他們的稅款,有點瘋狂,」阿姆斯特朗在推特上發文,指出了目前稅法複雜性的問題,據估計有15萬頁。
He argued that offloading the tax reporting burden from millions of individual Americans to approximately 10,000 of the largest companies would simplify the system significantly.
他認爲,將數百萬美國個人的稅收申報責任轉嫁給大約1萬家最大的公司,將大大簡化制度。
Armstrong added, "Try to generate equivalent revenue via a sales tax, or on business income, etc."
阿姆斯特朗補充說:「可以嘗試通過銷售稅或營業收入等方式實現相應的收入。」

He cited the need for systemic reforms, including a potential constitutional amendment capping government expenditure, to curtail what he sees as adverse incentives that expand government size over time.
他提到了需要系統性改革,包括潛在的憲法修正案,限制政府支出,以遏制他認爲會隨着時間擴大政府規模的不利激勵。
Armstrong proposed, "Every citizen then has skin in the game," suggesting a U.S. sovereign wealth fund that would provide citizens with shares and dividends from budget surpluses.
阿姆斯特朗提議:「每個公民都應該有利益相關」,建議設立一個美國主權財富基金,爲公民提供股份和預算盈餘的分紅。
What's Next: The debate is particularly timely as the industry prepares for events like Benzinga's Future of Digital Assets conference on Nov. 19, where such disruptive ideas and technologies are set to take center stage.
