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.
@9CBKZDD11mos11MO
Yes, especially on the highest tax brackets
@8VSSTYW3yrs3Y
Keep the current tax structure the same but learn how to spend better!
@9LNZCPW6 days6D
Abolish the income tax for personal income, no change for the sales tax, and keep taxes for the big corporations.
@9LMC5GG1wk1W
It depends if the person made they way up no however if the person was born into old money and nepotism yes.
@9KMCFG72mos2MO
Taxes should be augmented only if the government is willing to provide more services to the people. Otherwise absolutely not.
@9KGWSV22mos2MO
Create a universal income tax exception of $26000. Start taxing at 5% and increase tax progressively by 2.5% per $10,000. Cap tax at 50%. There should only be federal income tax.
@9K3Q4DY2mos2MO
I feel that the rich should be taxed for things that would support the future in our world. Such as homeless shelters, renewable energy, and money towards researching climate change. As well as donating money so 3rd world countries can have real meals.
@9JYPDGG2mos2MO
No, but they should make the tax rate a percentage of one's pay so that people working as surgeons don't lose less money than the janitors to the government
@9GZYG4J5mos5MO
Regardless, reform to destination-based cash-flow tax (DBCFT) and remove all existing tax loopholes and deductions, also abolish across Canada: payroll tax, sales tax, capital gain tax, interest gain tax, property and school tax, corporation tax, car tax, airline tax, cigarette and all other smoking products tax, alcohol tax, petrol tax, carbon tax, internet tax, diverted profit tax, luxury goods tax, mansion tax then enact: automation tax, mortgage tax relief, (packaging tax, plastic tax and plastic bag tax until bio-plastic is widely use which should not be taxed).
@9GYC866Conservative5mos5MO
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
@9GRZW9K6mos6MO
Lower income taxes, increase sales taxes, conduct a review of the tax system, and remove tax loopholes.
sliding scale tax for every bracket. mainly reform spending so that tax relief for all can be achieved
@9GNXXXT6mos6MO
There are agreements, as well as other things we have signed which might get in the way of this, but we should have a progressive tax system depending on different factors as to how people pay different amounts.
@9GJPKWT6mos6MO
The rich should provide a minimum donation to support programs for increasing quality of life for low income families, marginalized people, and reforming criminal systems.
@9GH2KFF6mos6MO
Raise taxes on the poor and lower taxes on the rich. Poor people don't make as much money because they don't contribute as much to society, so we deserve the money they have.
@96D85B22yrs2Y
no because the people with lots of money who worked very hard for their money and he money would be given to people who dont work as hard and will have everything given to them
@969MGR62yrs2Y
Taxes are illegal. Subsidy with consent is what we need..
@968QZDM2yrs2Y
I think they should make it a little more , and help middle / low classes out but not by to much at all.
@968K5N22yrs2Y
More taxes for everyone
@96858V62yrs2Y
No, but close possible loop holes that the rich use. And define rich.
@965WD5H2yrs2Y
tax rates should not change, but the loop holes should be found and closed so that the rich actually pay their fair share.
@965D8HXConservative2yrs2Y
i fell like there shod be only 2 takbratis so then evonne is epwol
@9653HWJ2yrs2Y
Yes, and raise income tax on all income brackets while reducing sales taxes.
@964DJXB2yrs2Y
Increasing tax on those who worked hard can discourage innovation.
@964CN252yrs2Y
Taxe the rich and lower taxes for the poor and middle class
@9645TY32yrs2Y
To a reasonable degree, we have to make sure those at the top pay their fair share.
@95ZFZGN2yrs2Y
raise all peoples taxes not just rich people
@95YCWBP2yrs2Y
lower tax for poor higher it for rich
@95Y3K272yrs2Y
Tax income above the poverty level. Income sliding scale after that
@95XKCJX2yrs2Y
No more taxes overall, For all citizens. No income tax. No property tax. No sales tax. Only tax foreigners.
@95WYXWK2yrs2Y
Yes, a little and lower the taxes for the poor.
@95WSYH72yrs2Y
Really rich people don’t pay income tax. So it’s a little pointless. Corporate loopholes need to be assessed, and a method to tax the super rich should be assessed, perhaps a capital tax over a certain limit.
@95WPYYR2yrs2Y
Flat tax with a cap of 25%. Someone who makes 100,000 pays $25k. someone who makes 200,000 pays $50k. The wealthier earner still pays more tax but it equitable.
@95T54GJ2yrs2Y
Increase the tax free portio to $25,000 and remove almost all tax credits except for education, medical, and charity
Yes, but they should be taxed based on pay.
@95N7VRR2yrs2Y
Continue to adjust tax based on income, but don’t over tax the rich or poor.
@95LS6K72yrs2Y
No but raise taxesc for the poor
@95HSFZV2yrs2Y
no, but they should remove all existing tax loopholes for large corporations.
@95HR3MF2yrs2Y
increase the tax on the rich and lower the tax for the poor
@95HJ6372yrs2Y
@95GB29P2yrs2Y
Yes, and lower taxes for the other income brackets
@95FGRKY2yrs2Y
raise taxes on big corporations like amazon
@95DJ4SV2yrs2Y
lower the tax brackets for anything under 75k increase tax on any company/and or person that makes over 1 million dollars a year of income
@95DH7PG2yrs2Y
Yes, but this is not an "end-all, be-all" solution which Bernie Sanders thinks it is. There needs to be multiple streams of revenue that work and help sustain government programs rather than one group being taxed more heavily than another.
@9586ZCPRhinoceros2yrs2Y
raise taxes on single mothers and poor people
@9584BSD2yrs2Y
Yes, but only by a slight percentage
@957BZS72yrs2Y
I think tax should be strictly based on how much you make each year.
Yes, specifically on the super rich and companies with excess profits.
@956MKLT2yrs2Y
@956FBK82yrs2Y
No, increase tax evasion penalties
