Income e...Should rich people pay more income tax? <br />Income earned 35%. Income from capital gains 15%.<br />Lower their income tax, since this is what they actually earn. This would be rewarding "new money". On capital gains increase the tax rate. Perhaps not to 35% but it should be higher, because all they do is sit on their asses and rake it in.<br />This is most fair. And no taxes on first $20k-$30k income on those earning less than $x/year. Some people are fucking starving to death. They don't make enough money and don't qualify for food stamps.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8301787602455775830.post-31668650955799345102011-07-10T04:33:28.196-07:002011-07-10T04:33:28.196-07:00If you use the coefficient of correlation to compa...If you use the coefficient of correlation to compare various tax rates vs. various periods of growth you see that there is in fact no correlation between the two.
