Re: Why stop at very healthy profits? said by joetaxpayer:I agree that we should expect the cap to be lifted, on some semi-regular basis. Do you seriously think they're going to raise the cap on a regular basis? or raise it at all? again- this is an easy way for them to pave the way for future overage charges for average users.
I find it curious that when we talk taxes, the top .1% are vilified, everyone wants to tax them 1000% if we could Maybe YOU want to tax them 1000%. I think the top .1% should be paying exactly the same tax rates as you and me. They already pay millions (or more) in taxes as it is - and if you put too much tax burden on them they'll simply move their business elsewhere. You can't tax someone millions of dollars and expect them not to be able to creatively shift income around so it doesn't get taxed. For you and me it's not worth the trouble - for the upper .1% of taxpayers it very well will be if you tax them high enough. |
