Message | We could get on board with a low tax starting around $7,000, relieving some of the burden on the $10-15,000 bracket, and shifting it to the $15,000/above bracket. But we have a few problems with this. First, it taxes too low into the tax base (i.e., we're probably taxing some poor people here). Second, it looks a little arbitrary. |
