Obama to propose new tax rate for millionaires - CNN.com
The White House will propose a new tax rate for people earning more than $1 million a year to ensure that they pay at least the same percentage of their earnings in taxes as middle-income Americans, administration and White House officials told CNN on Sunday. Called the Buffett Rule, the proposal will be part of a comprehensive deficit reduction plan that President Barack Obama will unveil on Monday, according to a senior administration official and White House sources who spoke on condition of not being identified. The information was first reported by The New York Times.
I pick other. I support making everyone pay he same percentage in income taxes regardless of income level and eliminating exemptions .
You put out a poll, but do we know the details of what we are voting on? Is this a second AMT, how does it work, i.e. can the rich still donate and take it as a deduction, will municipal debt still be exempt from federal taxes, how much money will the changes raise?
