Sure, nearly every opinion or argument is fallible. I'm not explicitly trying to create a slippery slope or fear monger. A slippery slope tends to lead to unintended consequences. I don't think expanding the net is unintended - I believe it's the deliberate goal. Our history suggests this w/r/t income taxes, etc.
- darkerside 6y agoI don't think the net will be widened, I think when more tax funds are needed, the gauge of the net will be adjusted to catch more fish from the same people. i.e. They'll increase the rate from 3% to 5%, not expose lower wealth individuals to the new tax.
- nemo44x 6y agoYou're partially correct. They'll increase the rate from 3% to 5% and then a new rate of 1% for the 30m-50m bracket and make it progressive.
