there shouldnt be a tax on your paycheck. we pay tax on everything we purchase so by taxing the paycheck then taxing what we pay after we get our check we pay more in taxes then we receive .
@9ZXF48X2wks2W
No, Canada should not raise taxes on the rich because they worked hard to get that money and to be wealthy.
@9F4F8G81yr1Y
Yes, and remove any possible loopholes that are currently being used or could be used by large corporations
@9CBKZDD2yrs2Y
Yes, especially on the highest tax brackets
@8VSSTYW3yrs3Y
Keep the current tax structure the same but learn how to spend better!
@9ZZ37MK2wks2W
No, why should the rich be punished for being successful? It just reduces incentives for business owners and large corporations to make jobs and make growth
@9ZXWKQM2wks2W
Yes. However, ensure that the taxes are not too high to make people who own businesses think about going to the States to run their businesses.
@9ZXMNFX2wks2W
No, but have systems in place to ensure that the general population has an income that is near to one another.
