Nay. The military cuts are bad enough, the income tax structure is a total non-starter.

I will not support this because the tax structure is in need of systemic reform and taxing 60% percent on those making over a million is a non starter with me.

My income tax structure proposal

9,500-20,000 5%
20,001-100,000 10%
100,001-500,000 20%
500,001-5,000,000 30%
5,000,001+ 40 %

More or less, yes, and most are made from the Nix budget. The exception would be transportation, which I believe was in my initial basic proposal.

I'm actually supportive of Bore's amendment, and I am happy to see most of the cuts retained. I'm not sure if I am the actual sponsor here since I'm not a Senator, but the amendment is mostly friendly for me.

That said, I would like to see the possibility of increasing the NASA budget (I believe it's far too low if we can to get more ambitious things done in that front), and, if the proposal raises enough revenue, reverting some of minor cuts in the international area. I'm not sure if Bore's proposal actuall raises the Healthcare Payroll tax back to 8%, but if that was the case then the situation may not be as nearly as complicated.

Okay thank you.

I too think that Senator bore's amendments are sensible, and likewise as Senator Polnut, I can not approve of Senator TNF's tax rates. It just makes no sense at all just starting to tax people making more than 100K, we can in no way fund our budget with such a tax structure. (I better not start talking about Senator JCL's proposal)



With all do respect I want to hear what you think about my proposal for a pro-growth tax structure.

I also object to Polnut's amendment in the basis of maintaining a bracket of taxing our wealthiest more than 40%.

With all due respect to you - is there anything you use here except baseless strawmen?

Are you familiar with the Laffer curve?
