We can't tax ourselves to prosperity but there's certainly people who could afford to contribute to programs for those who need help the most. Those earning over roughly $220,000 should be paying 50% of their income in federal taxes. Everyone has the need for education healthcare, food, Medicaid, and eventually Medicare and social security. Don't forget funding our veterans and armed forces along with law enforcement too. In an above thread I posted tax brackets that I believe to be fair. At the same time, there shouldn't be a penalty for marriage and couples with children should have a child tax credit.
income < $64,600 15% income < $195,000 28% income < $217,000 33% income > $217,000 50%
Lastly, I reassert we can't tax ourselves to prosperity and in addition to these new brackets, corporate taxes should be eliminated for companies who have shareholders which would bring jobs back from overseas many of which left due to higher taxes and an unfriendly attitude towards businesses.
