there shouldnt be a tax on your paycheck. we pay tax on everything we purchase so by taxing the paycheck then taxing what we pay after we get our check we pay more in taxes then we receive .
@B445WWQ1mo1MO
2 options either lower income don't pay tax only rich and raise tax on rich or no taxes at all to anyone
@B286ZK4New Democratic4mos4MO
Taxes should be proportional to your net worth (or wealth for those who use debt as a way to lower income), including any non liquid funds/assets, so corporations/Individuals cannot use the current loopholes to lower their taxes.
@B2V8N8P3mos3MO
you can keep it mostly the same but they need to account for the increase interest when considering taxes
@9FBJ56D2yrs2Y
yes, they should pay about 2% more than the poor. The poor should pay 4% less.
@8YWNWC33yrs3Y
Lower tax under 200k income and 10 million holdings. Raise tax otherwise.

does not need to be raised but we need to make sure that the rich are paying their taxes and not abusing loop holes in the system.
