re: #164 dangerman


the second question is what’s the number the rate will be based on - ie what is taxed. some definition of gross income, an “adjusted” income, wealth, or something else?

And a related issue: what is counted as income and is different income treated differently? Why should labor be subject to both the highest level of income taxes and and FiCA taxes, while dividends, carried interest, and capital gains are taxed at a much lower rate?
