| Message | We echo the sentiments of the DSP. The SCP would like to see additional brackets added for >40,000 SEK, >50,000 SEK, and >60,000 SEK, with the 100,000 SEK bracket removed, and tax increasing by 5% for each bracket. At the very least, we would like to see a revenue of 200 billion SEK, so that essential government programs will not have to be cut. |

| Message | We'd just like to add that we won't vote for any income tax proposal that does'nt highly tax the ultra rich. Now will we vote for one that taxes anyone on a salary of 6,000 SEK or less. |
