I would take a doubling of the current rate if they would implement voting reform - like they promised.
Great! Now increase it 1% for the top earners.
Yes, but to be faaaaiirrrrr, the truly rich don’t collect a salary. It is arguable that if a person’s income is subject to income tax, the person is not a capitalist but a worker. The rich have all kinds of ways to avoid declaring income.
Capital gains tax or Land Value Tax would be more interesting.
Carney was talking about using AI to implement a type of DOGE system on top of the tax cuts, is this DOGE coming soon at least?
Surely we care about interest payments on our debt, and the lack of productivity its been creating in our economy.
boooooooooooooo
I'm curious, what is it you're "boo"ing? 🤔
I mean the house doing anything unanimously makes me think hell has frozen over, but tax cuts are everybody's farvorite policy.

Obviously I don't want it going to Israel, or any of the bad things which are funded in my name, but on the whole the purchasing power of our tax base is greater than anything I could do individually with my portion.
tax cuts are everybody's farvorite policy.
Brainwashed by the wealthy
It's a 1% tax cut for the lowest percentile (poor people).
Right, but they didn't move that 1% to the top bracket. So that's a whole lot of money disappearing from public services.
Which rich people still benefit from because of progressive taxation. Just saying.
poor people don't pay taxes
