Answer to Question 1

b

Answer to Question 2

The biggest obstacle to efficiency-enhancing tax reform is special interests. Special interests worked very hard to have those tax loopholes enacted into law and will lobby hard against their elimination. Many individuals will lose some special benefit by the elimination of loopholes but everyone will benefit by the lowering of tax rates. In fact, this could be a Pareto superior move.
