Super and I are on the same sheet of music with this one. I would split the baby between SF and GL and make it a 17% tax and let the finance majors show me where the cut off should be as far as income. I like 30k per adult and some OTHER amount per children. I would keep the additional 10% on everything over 1 mil, with a provision to suspend it when we don't need it, ie should we balance our books. I think this plan would finance the government's operation.
yeah, my 20% number (as I mentioned in a subsequent post) is purely arbitrary on my part. I don't care too much if it turns out that 15 or 17 or 22 percent is the actual number used. It is the foundation of the plan that I want.
I do disagree with your addition of a deduction for children though. With a $30k deduction per adult, the average family is getting enough (60k) of a deduction.
