Do you support tax policies that target high earners, banks, and luxury sectors?

Tax policies targeting high earners, banks, and luxury sectors are designed to impose higher taxes on wealthy individuals, financial institutions, and luxury goods and services. These policies aim to redistribute wealth, address income inequality, and increase government revenue for social programs. Proponents argue that such taxes promote economic fairness, reduce income inequality, and generate funds for essential public services. Opponents argue that these taxes discourage investment, hurt economic growth, and may unfairly burden certain sectors.

Yes the rich should be taxed more because they have more.

Sometimes

 @BDCKD8Manswered…2mos2MO

Yes, but the definition of high earners needs adjusting to not capture middle classes

 @BDB3MGZanswered…2mos2MO

The definition of high earners should be £300k+

 @BD67QPG answered…2mos2MO

Depends what is meant by high earners

 @BD5DZ4WLiberal Democrat answered…2mos2MO

Yes but to an extent. High earners also help the economy grow and if the UK taxes these individuals too much then it becomes an unattractive place to work. I think banks and luxury sectors again slightly different and they should be taxed but with limits.

No, tax wealth not work

 @BCYTXRHLiberal Democratanswered…2mos2MO

Yes, but the term "High Earner" should be based on local area cost of property and living.

 @BCWVB59from Rhode Island  answered…2mos2MO

No, tax the poor less.

 @BCW59YYanswered…2mos2MO

Yes, but being careful to distinguish between those who are classified as 'high earners' by technicality only and those who are truly wealthy (e.g., living off of dividends, etc).

On forgien comapnies not local ones

 @B97FZVZfrom Ontario  answered…6mos6MO

To an extent. Big corporations should be targeted but rich individuals that have succeeded shouldn't be targeted as much as they are

 @B8HXXBPanswered…7mos7MO

High earners that have worked hard for their money no. Big companys that scam people shpuld pay extra tax.

 @B2XJVSZanswered…1yr1Y

I support tax policies that are fair for everyone and doesnt "target" one group for any reason and instead generates money whilst not driving people out of the country
