Should the government raise taxes on the rich?

depending on how much the eprson make a year, should be the reason for how high or how lower their taxes

All the individuals should get an equal rights. Government can't raise the taxes for rich and decrease the rate for poor because to maintain country's economy balance; there should be equality.

I’d say cut 2/3 of the wage for all people in the House of Commons and keep the TAX how it is now for the rich

When it comes to really rich people who get out of paying tax or paying little to no tax I think that they should also pay

The tax brackets need to be adjusted to reflect current economic times and inflation rates, high income earners should be taxed accordingly however middle class earners are taxed beyond their means in most Cases.

It is probably more equitable to have a graduated income tax rate based on earnings. The problem with this is the wealthiest earners have access to an array of accountants, lawyers and financial advisors, and are able thus to avoid taxes and the equitable amount of tax they should pay.

I don’t think the Canadian government should raise taxes on the rich but rather take away all the ways that rich people can get away with tax breaks.

The government should implement a tax system which rewards hard work. But also make sure that the government has enough money to operate. Also the government should have a fairer tax system that makes people who are in the top 1% of income brackets who pay no taxes, pay their fair share.

Reform tax at all levels. Find new ways for the government to generate revenue other than heavily taxing the citizen

No. Replace the current structure with a flat tax on your income and property only. No sales tax.

No but if they don't contribute to society then yes

Not allowing certain Incomes so many tax breaks

Add a slight increase for the rich. For the corporations, no increase as they will just increase prices, shipping or other fees, or could use tax havens to escape the increased taxes.

A lot of rich people are aware or potential tax evading mechanics. I suggest that the government changes the way they tax rich people and raising the taxes. In Canada, rich people are being tax properly based on the % that they earn.

Lower capital gains tax

Remove deductible tax for donations

Everyone should be taxed on a percentage based on their work pay.

It depends. Some people just get there parents money and have barely any taxes to pay, but other people are working hard for their money and don't deserve to be taxed as heavily.

A percent tax already means the rich contribute more to taxes. The taxes are so high for the rich people will stop working hard to improve industry if you take away the financial incentives. That’s why the communists tend to starve to death.

Definitely but only raise a bit more and lower taxes for the poor

No, increasing taxes only incentivizes the rich to find loopholes not to pay any taxes

There are so many loopholes with the rich, this would not make a difference

I think they should make it equal for everyone.

Only subsidize businesses teaching poor people skills and making environmentally friendly decisions. Cut other subsidies and welfare for overall economic freedom.

no and give 600 000 dollar tax breaks for them to give more money to their employes.

Yes. However, at the same time, lower the taxes of the lower class people.

Only to massive corporations

I think taxes should be lowered. The taxes should increase by a percentage that makes sense with income

Why should we taxe the rich? Cause they work harder?

Abolish the income tax, disallow all deductions and increase the sales tax and remove all existing tax loopholes for large corporations

they earned it just like we did

Single tax bracket from 35,000 to 2,000,000 then progressive tax on higher income

Tax people's assets, not their income

I think that the government should no raise taxes on the rich but instead take a stricter stance to make sure they are taxed.

What would you specify as rich?

Ultra Rich

Yes, create more income brackets

Yes, however it should not be raised to the point where companies and corporations will leave the country.

No they should not as the tax brackets are already high enough in Canada and with out the rich the middle and lower-class will not have jobs

i fell like there shod be only 2 takbratis so then evonne is epwol

If research can truly prove that a flat tax works, pursue a flat tax and ensure that the government spends the money efficiently.

No, and abolish the income tax, disallow all deductions and increase the sales tax

yes, but it wouldn't change anything because the rich can become richer

Abolish all taxes but LVT

No, maintain the current rates until the national debt is drastically reduced, then lower taxes for the rich

Reform to a progressive tax and remove all existing tax loopholes.

Absolutely not because they have worked for that money over their years and acquired it. Just because they’re rich does not mean they should have to pay more taxes than everyone else.

No, Instead tax the bigger corporations

No, you should be aloud to keep the money you make.

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.

No, simplify taxes to percentages and eliminate loopholes and tax cuts

Instead of raising the taxes, make sure the rich are paying for there taxes and not finding a lope hole.

Our governments are too lenient on their more wealthy citizens and they need to step in and make sure that all citizen's pay for public services. The Wealthy class expect access to public services yet they refuse to pay for them. If I were in the position to solve this I would implicate a fixed tax rate for all people regardless on class and would also crack down on policies and laws that allow the rich to create loopholes through our tax system.

I think the rich should pay a tax that is sustainable for them like other taxpayers making it around the equal percentage of pay.

Abolish all taxation and switch to a donation-based system.
