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.

Abolish the income tax and start imposing tariffs. Cut federal and provincial government to 10% of its size. Abolish the federal and provincial MP and MLA and Senate pensions immediately.
sliding scale tax for every bracket. mainly reform spending so that tax relief for all can be achieved
Abolish the income tax and decrease the sales tax
@95CHLHCLibertarian3yrs3Y
No, and abolish taxes alongside the state.
@8Q6PG47Libertarian4yrs4Y
No, because the more money someone makes the higher the taxes already. taking from someone is stealing no matter how rich they are.
@8PC94R9Libertarian4yrs4Y
Taxation is theft, it must be eliminated.
@8NWJ3SPLibertarian4yrs4Y
Abolish the personal income tax for income <120,000/year, disallow all deductions and increase the sales tax with monthly rebates paid to all based on value paid for first 31,000 of income.
@8NWB7Z8Libertarian4yrs4Y
Taxation of any sort is theft.
@8DCY5CJLibertarian5yrs5Y
No, lower taxes on all income brackets and eliminate taxes for the poor
@93B2CSQLibertarian3yrs3Y
The tax brackets are fine but I think we need to focus on removing the loopholes for large corporations and make them all pay their share of tax
@8VWTC45Libertarian4yrs4Y
Abolish all forms of tax. Charge 20% royalties on natural resources instead.
@8R2RMP34yrs4Y
Reform to a progressive tax and remove all existing tax loopholes.

I think the rich should pay a tax that is sustainable for them like other taxpayers making it around the equal percentage of pay.
@8XSXMM63yrs3Y
If research can truly prove that a flat tax works, pursue a flat tax and ensure that the government spends the money efficiently.
@92RSHM93yrs3Y
yes, but it wouldn't change anything because the rich can become richer
@93RWDYB3yrs3Y
Abolish all taxes but LVT
@7NHC5ZQ4yrs4Y
No, abolish the income tax and establish a flat land value tax.
@8R7SQ2V4yrs4Y
No, but abolish the income tax for at least half (maybe 75% or even up to 90%) of Americans, and in turn increase taxes on land and passive income (such as stock ownership or real estate). This would encourage active participation in the economy while simultaneously not punishing high-skilled workers.
@7Y67TWY5yrs5Y
Switch to a all sales tax
@8J43K395yrs5Y
Remove income tax and replace it with a consumption tax.
@8QPG4TW4yrs4Y
Abolish all taxation and switch to a donation-based system.
