But also, income tax needs reforming. I think higher paid people should get an increased tax, but the tax bands should change. The tax bands are way too low and take advantage of most people unfairly. If we had more tax on corporations, as well as preventing loopholes, could allow the tax bands to be much wider (and more of them) and more reasonable for most people. Such as only 20% up to more like 70-80k ( for singles I mean. That is around the number for just married couples, but that should be better still as well). Then perhaps 35% (or more) up to 200k, and 50% (or more) to anything higher. These are just general numbers pulled, but I believe it is essential to be more fair to low income households to a higher band as there are plenty of households, and indeed just individuals, that are having to pay up to 40% on their income when they're on some of the lowest possible positions in their field, which is ridiculous
