Should Ireland 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.
@9HD2Q4V5mos5MO
Absolutely not.I believe in a more simplified tax system and flat income tax . Income Tax 20% ,Corporate 6.5% ,VAT and sales will stay the same. Inheritance,Capital Gains,Carbon and property tax should be removed
@97TK3871yr1Y
The government should make a clear distinction between those that are cash rich and asset rich. A farmer with hundreds and thousands of euro worth of land is asset rich but may not have cash liquidity and should not be taxed at a higher rate. However a large corporation owner who is both asset and cash rich should be taxed at a higher rate as they can afford to pay it.
@97YBF9B1yr1Y
No, but increase corporate tax

@8QPVL3P3yrs3Y
tax should be decided as a percentage of your individual income
Add a third tax bracket, taxing those with exceedingly high incomes, making a more progressive taxation policy
@9FSNKTQ7mos7MO
there should be an bracket percentage that applies to everyone so 40% above $40000 should apply to everyone

@9DM9X3Q8mos8MO
Tax simply doesn’t exist, it’s a scam, the banks use “tax” and “interest” as there source if income (that’s what they tell us but it’s false) in actuality the banks print money of demand (192.000.000 per day)
@9DFHLTJ8mos8MO
Rich pay higher taxes, less well off pay lower taxes, decrease burden on middle earner as well
Increase taxes for the rich, lower taxes for the poor, and remove all existing tax loopholes for large corporations.

@9CF9PCT11mos11MO
Yes and add a new tax bracket
@9BJNKFB1yr1Y
Income tax was designed for corporations not citizens. Citizens who own businesses should have taxes but also have a right to say where it goes/doesnt go if its against the interests of society for example immigration, war, sexualising kids in education, abortion, trans agenda and frivolous spending on things that dont benefit citizens like ugly art that hasnt been sanctioned, foreign spending on looking after citizens elsewhere while those at home suffer, trans conversion therapy for foreigners, hosting unwelcome globalists
@9BBWHKXIndependent1yr1Y

For low paid workers keep the current tax structure but increase income brackets for those who are higher payed
@8YGHFVQ2yrs2Y
@8Y49X5H2yrs2Y
Reduce welfare loopholes and decrease the tax cut-off. Lower taxes for middle income earners and progressively increase over multiple tax brackets.
@8XVSHYY2yrs2Y
The tax system needs to be revised. Middle income earners paying most tax. Tax base needs to be widened and loopholes for high earners and corporations to avoid paying need to be closed.
@8XT8YYY2yrs2Y
Adjust income taxes and the VAT based on the location and cap (or reduce) the price of properties as soon as possible.
@8XFLST72yrs2Y
We can keep the current tax structure & increase taxation on the rich & you don't need a flat tax or increase income brackets
@8WLSJ733yrs3Y
No, focus more on proper allocation of taxes and closing of existing loopholes for large corporations and then review the amount of tax large corporations are paying
@8V5VN8B3yrs3Y
i believe that background checks should be made for every person who is in the higher tax bracket, for example, a single parent may be forced to have to work more in order to provide for their family and therefore end up getting taxxed more.
@8TTGTFW3yrs3Y
Just have me pay the taxes for the entire country, it's only about 78 trillion a year and I make that money in a day so...
@8TN6HKH3yrs3Y
Yes but the threshold values for taxation should be changed. The current threshold for upper tax is too low.
