Because raising capital gains tax would drive the housing market to a standstill, reducing sales...reducing military funding, fair enough. But wouldn't that put more people wout of work something you said you wouldn't do? Raise inheritance tax? That could drive those that provide the wealth out the country....and discourage wealth from entering....not good. I don't have any great plans to save the country so I guess I should be quite on the matter. |
the housing market is fecked because of thatchers misguided "right to buy", we should scrap that and have a "right to rent", including affordable state housing when the private sector wont or cant provide it.
I didnt say no-one would lose their jobs, some people would, sure, but hopefully the new jobs created in other areas will mean overall unemployment goes down.
if people are that greedy, let them go, you right wing pigs always moan about the population size and overcrowding, so there you go.
people will still create wealth here, even significantly higher taxes are unlikely to have any impact on that.
