| Message | We already have a surplus and a very competitive flat tax rate. There's no reason to change this. |

| Message | Sorry I didn't realize the surplus had turned into a deficit by now. Still, there's no reason for such a large tax increase. I would propose budget cuts but I doubt y'all would support them. |

| Message | As it stands right now if you look at the current tax rate...no one is paying income tax at all. The Tax bracket is set way too high no one even makes that much. Based on that this is a great start by ensureing those that make the most also pay the most. |

| Message | That's the idea, no one should be paying income tax. Why do we need to tax people's incomes? And why is it better for the state to spend all of that money, of someone else's labor!!!, than for the people to have the money to do with as they please? We don't need big government, this is putting us on the road to it by feeding the behemoth. |

| Message | Also 50% tax?! WHAT THE HELL? The state has the right to HALF OF YOUR INCOME!!! That should be a HUGE red flag to ANYONE. I mean seriously, you guys want Kundrati's economy to go straight down the drain? And besides that, what if you had to pay that much? Such excessive taxes are not necessary or prudent. |

| Message | Even at 50% the people effected would still be making 100,000 a year which is way more then most people. If you can not live off 100,000 a year I begin to question your ability to manage your funds. |
