@spillnoow: A heated argument over taxes comes down to a familiar economic debate: what happens when the government takes more from the highest earners? The fund manager argues that extremely high marginal tax rates can weaken the incentive to keep working, investing, or building businesses once the additional reward becomes too small. Economic research does find that higher marginal rates can affect incentives to work and invest, although the size of that effect varies. His critics point to U.S. history. From 1954 through 1963, the top federal marginal income-tax rate was 91%, yet those headline rates applied only to income above very high thresholds and were not the same as the effective tax rate people actually paid. The broader relationship between taxes and economic growth is more complicated than either side suggests. Research has found that the outcome depends on factors including which taxes change, who pays them, how people respond, and what happens to the resulting government revenue or deficit. #Taxes #Economics #WallStreet #Finance #business 🏆 $50,000 USDC xStocks Trading Competition is LIVE!
