I hope a capital-gains tax is considered as part of the mix.
- quickthrowman 5mo agoSure, that would be a great way to fund Social Security and Medicaid. I proposed raising the payroll tax cap simply because it works within the existing framework, but targeting wealth to fund social programs is a good idea too.
- JumpCrisscross 5mo agoI did more digging. You'd have to tap payroll taxes, too. Total taxable capital gains in America are something like 2x the projected annual deficit.
