Should Germany 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.

Implement a land value tax instead.
@98KSQNJFree Democratic3yrs3Y
No, it should lower taxes.
@97PCN8MFree Democratic3yrs3Y
Yes, but the definition of rich should be someone making more than 300k a year! Increasing taxes on upper middle class won't help anyone
@96YKSJ4Free Democratic3yrs3Y
No. It should lower it and reform it to a flat tax.
@9CLKVVFFree Democratic2yrs2Y
Shift all taxes to a single land value tax.

@8J43K395yrs5Y
Remove income tax and replace it with a consumption tax.
@7Y67TWY5yrs5Y
Switch to a all sales tax
@8LZGM3L5yrs5Y
Absolutely not because they have worked for that money over their years and acquired it. Just because they’re rich does not mean they should have to pay more taxes than everyone else.
@8LYLWBG5yrs5Y
No, Instead tax the bigger corporations
@8L9P7P35yrs5Y
For the duration of the COVID-19 pandemic, taxes should not be raised for anybody. 6 months after the vaccine is distributed to everyone, say in early or mid-2022, those that earn between $400,000 and more will have a tax increase, it won't be a massive increase nor will it be a minuscule increase
@8PRKY7Q5yrs5Y
No, you should be aloud to keep the money you make.
@8Q6C4Y45yrs5Y
No, maintain the current rates until the national debt is drastically reduced, then lower taxes for the rich
@8QPG4TW4yrs4Y
Abolish all taxation and switch to a donation-based system.
@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.
@8CV6FZ55yrs5Y
Everyone's tax should be equal in the amount of your income you lose.
@7NHC5ZQ4yrs4Y
No, abolish the income tax and establish a flat land value tax.
@63ZXW6N4yrs4Y
@Conservative7484yrs4Y
Raise taxes on the rich, lower taxes on the lower brackets
@8XH4JKP4yrs4Y
I think the rich should pay a tax that is sustainable for them like other taxpayers making it around the equal percentage of pay.
@8XSXMM64yrs4Y
If research can truly prove that a flat tax works, pursue a flat tax and ensure that the government spends the money efficiently.
@72VZT8L3yrs3Y
Lower income taxes on the middle and poor class, and increase on the rich.
@8ZH59GG3yrs3Y
No, and abolish the income tax, disallow all deductions and increase the sales tax
@92457QX3yrs3Y
Instead of raising the taxes, make sure the rich are paying for there taxes and not finding a lope hole.
@92RSHM93yrs3Y
yes, but it wouldn't change anything because the rich can become richer
@93RWDYB3yrs3Y
Abolish all taxes but LVT
@87V5TYY4yrs4Y
Abolish the income tax, disallow all deductions and loopholes
@8DPWTGP5yrs5Y
People should be taxed at the same rate. If you earn more, you should pay a little more, but it should be at the same percentage as someone who makes less.
@8G9CLG75yrs5Y
Slightly raised for rich
@8GLKWV55yrs5Y
Once again, define the word "rich".
@8GLZ9KD5yrs5Y
Reform to a flat tax except have lower to no taxes for the poor and remove tax loopholes for large corporations.
