70% want 70%


Fox News, FOX NEWS, has completed a new poll which found that 70% of us want marginal tax

rates. To state for the very wealthy is redundant. If the higher levies occur after the first 10 million

dollars earned annually, then the person is in fact wealthy. In contrast to the fact there has to be ongoing protests to raise the minimum wage to $15/hour.


And in concert, how about a wealth tax. It already exists piecemeal. There are property taxes and

money is remitted back to the state for registering vehicles or other large items. On a micro

level, sales tax adds a small surcharge to purchases. It is a very regressive tax.


Guess what? Most Americans want and support such a proposal.

What happened last year? The Congress passed a massive tax cut for corporations and the very wealthy. Seems to be just the opposite of what an overwhelming number of Americans are asking for and the economy desperately needs.
