Australia currently has a progressive tax system whereby high income earners pay a higher percentage of tax than low income tax. A more progressive income tax system has been proposed as a tool towards reducing wealth inequality.

raise taxes for the ritch and lower them for the poor
Yes, but only the ridiculously rich people ; like big corporations owners. Or an alternative could be just paying their workers more
@8VCSXRL4yrs4Y
Only on the ultra rich (above 100 million per annum) and corporate tax
@8TVZNSRNew Democratic4yrs4Y
Increasing taxes to the rich is ineffective, should focus on ensuring the people with the most money pay taxes.
@8TV6W8Q4yrs4Y
Tax the rich and lower taxes for low income households
Yes, and introduce a cap on the total wealth and assets a person or organization can own
@8TJ42VR4yrs4Y
Yes and increase by 25 percent
@8RPMRSS4yrs4Y
Yes, but the rich has to be defined more clearly. I would determine rich to be a median household income on $250,000 a year or greater
@8Q96VKD4yrs4Y
Raise taxes on the rich in such a way that does not encourage moving of their wealth to other countries (e.g. increase tax on luxury goods as opposed to income)
@8PZWWGR4yrs4Y
Lower taxes depending on what class or how much they make, and to compensate for it raise it for the rich

Single tax bracket from 35,000 to 2,000,000 then progressive tax on higher income
@98WXKGQ2yrs2Y
Yes, the government must raise income tax rates until a robust, progressive model is achieved while simultaneously eliminating tax loopholes for corporations and the wealthy.
@8ZJNVP53yrs3Y
establish a maximin wage
@96QM73H3yrs3Y
basic income for all. free education. this helps to level the playing field instead of using taxation as the golden ticket.
