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.

I don't think so because people earn that money by hardwork so I think tax is same for all the peoples.
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.

this is a misleading question the normal have income tax but most "rich" people gain there wealth over stocks witch are taxed less so if we rise tax on a higher income it doesn't affect the rich. so equal out the tax between people who make money off stock with people who make money of normal income.
@9FM9QN92yrs2Y
Yes, but only in a fair and reasonable amount.

Keep taxes affordable like; the poor should get low taxes and the rich should get a bit higher but still affordable.

Keep tax rates the way they are, but remove all existing tax loopholes for corporations and rich individuals.

Place current focus on auditing and investigate the use of dividends, laundering, and other methods of tax avoidance.
@8TR7LCQ4yrs4Y
I think we should do a lot of other things to the rich
@8TBDVVP4yrs4Y
Poor people are products of their own doing and with hard work can be financially stable. Providing income relief to poor classes is a form of enabling. Rich people know how to hamdle
@8QW8BGR4yrs4Y
No. I don't see the point on raising taxes on the rich.
@8PDQ9CJ4yrs4Y
Yes, only for people that make 400k or more
