which policies are those and which party put them in place?
Glad you asked....
Lets start with why Capital Gains are taxed at a lower rate than labor is
If one man works all year digging ditches for $25,000 and another makes $25,000 by clicking a mouse on a computer.....why does the Ditch Digger pay more in taxes?
The capital gains tax rate on $25,000 is 15% and the rate on a single taxpayer with an income of $25,000 is 15%. What do you propose changing?
I expect him to say that cap gains should be taxed at 50% from the first dollar and the the income tax rate on an income of 25K should be zero.
