To tax capital gains at the same rate as income.

Created by C.W. on November 18, 2012

I think this proposal would help restore fairness and balance to our tax code. We have a ever larger divide between the top 1% or even .1% of our populations income and the rest of us than we had four years ago. I feel this is one of the most divisive issues we face and this idea seems like it would address at least some of the divide. Do your own research on this issue then come back and sign if you agree with me. There is no good evidence that higher capital gains taxes hurt investment. They were 28% under Regan and I think most would agree people still invested then.
