I'd like to ask all the liberals out there what percentage rate of ones incomes should be taxed...is it 10%, 20%, 50%, 80%...etc..The reason I ask is that it seems no matter how high the tax rate is increased...your always complaining that its not enough...so I'm just curious what you liberals think is fairtax rate...
I'd like to hear that too. I know during the campaign I heard that asked several times and no one would give an amount. Why? Because they want to always be able to raise it more.
We are already double taxed, triple taxed,etc. Got to keep that river flowing.
I think one thing that could definitely solve some problems would be to raise the social security tax rate cap by, oh, a hundred thousand dollars or so.
I'm all about lower taxes though. I don't think income taxes should generally be more than 30 - 35% ...... maybe we could find a better way to tax wealth instead of income.... capital gains without hurting the retired or retirement accounts...
I'm just in my first FULL year of working at a REAL job after grad school, and am starting to see the error of my "tax tax tax" ways as a student!
I think a fair tax rate is 50% on all income in excess of $300,000. And index it for inflation...
I also think that a new AMT should be implemented to do what it was originally designed to do - force the very affluent to pay taxes and not be able to evade them via the numerous loopholes available to them. I think the AMT should be structured so that everyone earning in excess of $500,000 should pay at least 30% on ALL INCOME - FROM WHATEVER SOURCES - INCLUDING CAPITAL GAINS!!!

How much will it take to run the country and do its business and service the National Debt plus pay it down at 3% per year??
Give me that figure and we'll get a tally on how many taxpayers we have and how much they earn in toto and then we can do some serious ciphering.

The same rates we have now except one more bracket. That bracket would be 90% of everything over 3 million dollars. Adjusted for inflation this should be close to the tax rates we had in the 50's. A simpler time before the Reagan greed era began.
