Classic idiotic post. We have indirect taxes for fiscal reasons not because of the EU. Why do you have to always be so reductionist. Every little problem is because of Johnny Foreigner isn't it? But he is right about the 15%.

I bet Park Road is tearing his hair out at the direction this thread has taken.

It should be spread. charge whatever percentage rate covers all the costs. Otherwise where does it stop? Do you just keep on hitting the lawyers until their take-home pay is the same as the shop workers? Surely that's communism (doesn't matter what job you do, you get your living expenses as dictated by the state) and that doesn't tend to end well Harsh. That's making the very much less well off less well off, in order to keep an assumed balance, which in itself is contradictory by subsidising the very much better off.

Edited by Kermit8 (13 Oct 2017 6.30pm) Why do you think the Rolling Stones and many other high earners buggered off in the 1970s?

The logic of progressive taxation is well established, higher earners can afford to pay in higher proportion as the basics in life have already been covered. You hit discretionary and not necessary expenditure. Sweden has a top tax rate of 56% plus 7% in pension contributions. People still stay there. In fact they appreciate the investments that are made for them as a result of the relatively high tax take. It's a very nice place to live and work. It's a very nice place to live because it's also a pretty small population with relatively large natural resources in comparison. It's not true to say that they there isn't dispute over their tax levels and the affordability of their system as its population increases. It's culturally mono outside of its immigrant areas and the problems of immigration have already started social cohesion problems....which are obviously just going to increase.
