I’m a high-earner millennial software engineer, and I identify as a pretty staunch socialist. I know that socialist policies will likely mean I’ll have to pay more in taxes. That’s ok. I’m ok with that. The societal benefits far, FAR outweigh the drawbacks.
Completely agreed. I should be paying 5 or 10% more on my top bracket. But also the real money is in capital gains, which should also be taxed on a progressive schedule. Right now you have people who make millions or billions through investments and pay 15% tops while people at a high salary pay 30%. There's no reason why someone at the 85th percentile of income should pay double what the top 1% does.
