I'm all for progressive taxation. But we should acknowledge we do already have progressive taxation on income (see below). One can make the argument it should be *more* progressive, but the top 1% pay c25% of income tax. Last year 46% of adults paid no income tax (helped by increasing the tax free allowance).Mifune wrote:Rich people are so hard done by politics.overseasTOON wrote:An additional tax increase for being successful in life?

Can also argue, cap gains/corporate/other taxes are too low and rich ppl benefit from it, but it's complicated
