And it came to pass in those days, that there went out a decree from Caesar Augustus, that all the world should be taxed.
Luke 2:1

In our time of continued economic frustration, not recovery, taxation continues throughout history to determine business investment decisions. The New Year brings forth another time of decision for our political leaders in the area of taxation. It should be noted that our leaders need to make decisions that correct our short term tragedies, but for once is attached to a long term positive correction plan.

I believe we have followed the verse to tax all the world, but is the proportion within this system fair, equitable, and financially successful for our society?
