This graphic from the #BBC is telling. It shows the percentage that various income groups in the #UK pay in #tax. What can't be overlooked is how much the #poorest end up paying as a percentage of their #income. So while the richest can boast how much they are contributing in absolute terms to government services, the poor are paying nearly as much as a percentage of their already meagre spending power.

Wealth over fairness: Shocking report unveils #tax favoritism for the #rich in 41 #US #states
According to the #report, in 41 out of 50 states, the wealthiest 1 percent are subjected to lower tax rates compared to other #income groups.
Ruth Milka -January 10, 2024
..."The report contextualizes the current tax systems against the backdrop of recent trends in various states. Notably, several states have embarked on tax-cutting sprees, significantly reducing rates for #corporations and the #wealthy. This trend comes at a time when reports indicate that ultra-rich #Americans hold an estimated $8.5 trillion in untaxed assets.
In contrast to the prevailing trend, six states â California, Maine, Minnesota, New Jersey, New York, and Vermont â along with the District of Columbia, have implemented progressive tax systems. For instance, Massachusettsâ introduction of a millionaires tax led to a substantial improvement in the stateâs ranking on ITEPâs Tax Inequality Index. Similarly, Minnesota has enhanced its tax policies for high earners while providing benefits for lower-income families.
Florida stands out as having the most regressive tax code in the U.S., with the wealthiest 1% paying a tax rate of only 2.7 percent, in stark contrast to the 13.2 percent rate for the poorest 20 percent. The lack of personal income taxes in Florida and similar states leads to a heavier reliance on regressive consumption and property taxes.
Recent years have seen a trend towards more regressive tax systems in many states. Kentucky, for example, has moved toward a flat tax system, resulting in significant tax cuts for higher-income families, offset by increased sales and excise taxes on a range of services and goods.
Some states are showing that tax regressivity can be addressed. New Mexico and Massachusetts have made notable progress through reforms to refundable credits and increased taxation of top earners. These efforts demonstrate the potential for policy changes to create more equitable tax systems.
The ITEP report sheds light on the pervasive issue of tax inequality across the United States. With 41 states taxing their wealthiest citizens at lower rates than other income groups, the study calls into question the fairness and effectiveness of current state tax policies. As ITEPâs Aidan Davis puts it, âThe regressive state tax laws we see today are a policy choice, and itâs clear there are better choices available to lawmakers.â This conclusion underscores the need for a reevaluation of tax systems in favor of a more equitable approach."...

Tell your #senators to become original #co-sponsors of the #Billionaires Income #Tax
"Next week, Senate Finance Committee Chair Ron Wyden (D-OR) is widely expected to introduce his Billionaires Income Tax (BIT) to correct the absurdity of billionaires paying lower tax rates than many working people.
According to the Joint Committee on Taxation, the BIT would raise $557 billion over 10 years.[4] It would be applied annually to the growth in value of easily priced assets such as stocks, and to the growth in value of harder to price assets like private businesses when theyâre sold.
This new tax would only apply to taxpayers whose net worth either exceeds $1 billion or whose income exceeds $100 million for three consecutive years.
This is a critical piece of legislation that would not only ensure that Americaâs 748 billionaires are paying income taxes each yearâjust like working people doâit would also help close the widening wealth gap in America: the richest 1% hold almost one-third (31%) of U.S. wealth while the bottom 50% has just 2.5%.
Click âSTART WRITINGâ to send a message to your U.S. senators urging them to become original co-sponsors of the Billionaires Income Tax to ensure billionaires start paying their fair share of taxes."

La crĂ©ation dâun impĂŽt europĂ©en sur la grande fortune rĂ©pond Ă de nombreux appels de la sociĂ©tĂ© civile, de scientifiques et dâĂ©lus. RĂ©cemment encore, plus dâune centaine de dĂ©putĂ©s europĂ©ens, soutenus par des Ă©conomistes, ont appelĂ© lâUnion Ă instaurer un impĂŽt progressif sur lâextrĂȘme richesse. La future directive relative Ă la mise en place dâun niveau minimum dâimposition mondial pour les groupes multinationaux dans lâUnion europĂ©enne a dĂ©jĂ montrĂ© que lâUnion Ă©tait capable de sâentendre pour plus dâĂ©quitĂ© fiscale. Plus gĂ©nĂ©ralement, la ConfĂ©rence sur lâavenir de lâEurope a insistĂ© sur la nĂ©cessitĂ© dâharmoniser la politique fiscale, et dâutiliser ce levier pour lutter contre la crise environnementale.
Lâinstauration dâun impĂŽt europĂ©en sur la grande fortune nĂ©cessiterait trois interventions lĂ©gislatives :
