SB 108-08: Funding a Greater Society Act (Passed)

[S019]

What does this look like with regional taxes too? I’m aware that things are still similar to irl levels federally in part because increasing the highest rate would bring it to over 100%.

This is of course an issue, but it's the fault of the incompetence of the regional governments, if anything this is a good argument for abolishing the regions entirely. I see no issue with this bill, as is, and the incompetence of the regions should not hold us back from passing policy.

Nay, I'd like to amend that top rate so that we aren't above 100% after regional and federal are combined.

I suggest we just pass a bill that would subsidize regional taxes for any regions which have combined marginal rates above 75% or so.


Anyways AYE on the bill, it isn’t our job to clean up Fremont’s mess.

-Weatherboy makes a good point. I'm disappointed with the still too high tax brackets for people making under 130k. I don't see if this needs a change now.

I mean this is entirely the fault of ridiculous tax rates in your own region, it isn't our job to clean up their mistakes.
