Ha, yeah I can see. Especially in the Corbyn thread!

OK. Let's hear your points.

Genuinely not trying to be rude here but so far all I've hear is a couple of single sentence comments and an anecdote.

I'm genuinely interested in hearing well argued counterpoints to my views.

My point was that high earners should not be taxed more than anybody else. Using percentages already takes their greater ability to pay into account.

And about the cuts - there needs to be cuts to bring down the national debt.

They aren't. They pay no tax on their first 11,500. Like everyone else. The same 20% on the next 33,500. The same 40% on the next 105k, and then the same 45% on anything over 150k.

There's no discrimination involved.
