I had no idea encouraging taxes was a libby thing.
As for my view on taxes:
Income tax:
Should and must be the same percentage for all tax brackets. Lets say it is 20% for all.
If you earn 5 times more you already pay 5 times more using the same 20%, no need to punish big earners even more. Punishing hard earners, smart earners and so on is not good for society - you should encourage most quality people, not punish. Leftards thinks otherwise.
Taxes like this soda drink tax:
I support it because drinks like these affects health, meaning bigger health care spending.
And all that is being paid for everyone (in one for or another).
People who take care of their health should not pay for those who ruin their health. So with this tax - those who ruin their health will pay extra.
The question is - where will this tax go, towards health care or wasted in the whole tax pot?
