    Donald Trump on Monday proposed collapsing the federal income tax rate from seven brackets down to three and called for allowing child-care expenses to be exempt from taxation in a speech allies hope will help the GOP presidential nominee turn the page on a tumultuous period some Republicans fear has severely damaged his campaign.
    Overall, Trump offered few new details behind his economic vision, which he unveiled as a candidate last year. One notable exception was his call to enable families to "fully deduct" child-care expenses from their taxes. Some such expenses are already deductible; experts say that the additional amounts will largely benefit middle- and upper middle-class families.
    On tax rates, business mogul said he would work with House Republicans and use the same three brackets they have proposed: 12 percent, 25 percent and 33 percent. Previously, Trump proposed tax brackets of 0 percent, 10 percent, 20 percent and 25 percent.
    "For many American workers, their tax rate will be zero," said Trump.
    The GOP nominee continued to leave large question marks about how he would pay for his plans and avoid ballooning the federal budget deficit. He included no new details on how he would limit the cost of his tax reform plan, which analysts have estimated would reduce federal revenues by as much as $10 trillion over a decade. His child-care expense plan would presumably raise that cost even further.
    Trump released a tax plan last year that would reduce the top income tax rate from 39.6 percent to 25 percent and bring down the top corporate rate from 35 percent to 15 percent. The plan would eliminate the estate tax and reduce tax rates to 10 percent for households earning $100,000 or less.
    Trump also did not spell out any federal spending cuts. In his remarks, Trump said he would offer more details in the coming weeks.

Vamos aprender inglês, FCC?? 

 

O uso do gerúndio após alguns verbos, faz-se obrigatório em alguns casos e opcionais em outros. No caso do verbo PROPOSE, preposto ao verbo COLLAPSE, o acrescimo do -ING é obrigatório, o que nao significa que a tradução da palavra deva estar no presente continuo. 

 

Contratem melhores examinadores. 

Charlisom Marques, isso em nada muda o gabarito. A ideia de redução continua a mesma.
