Should Canada raise taxes on the rich?
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.

No, and all taxes should be abolished
@3GZTJR25yrs5Y
No, lower or remove all taxes for everyone as long as they donate to charities of their choosing between 10%-20% of their net income
@8QF5CTX4yrs4Y
Yes, but only capital gains tax on people making over $500,000 dollars per year.
@8R2RMP34yrs4Y
Reform to a progressive tax and remove all existing tax loopholes.
@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.

No taxes are theft and there are other ways to finance the federal government. Perhaps no one has heard these ideas because of the exclusive Presidential Debate Commission.

Reform to a tax system where the taxpayer regardless of income pays a low amount however they can choose if they want to spend higher as well as allowing the individual taxpayer decide what they want their money to go towards.

@8XH4JKP3yrs3Y
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.
@8ZCJJ3R3yrs3Y
Reform to a flat tax and abolish all loopholes for all, including corporations
@92RSHM93yrs3Y
yes, but it wouldn't change anything because the rich can become richer
@93RWDYB3yrs3Y
Abolish all taxes but LVT
