––Revenue–– Low-Income Taxation (–22.22 x 1.8 = 40b)  Mid-Income Taxation (–26.67 x 1.5 = 40b) High-Income Taxation (+200b x 1.2 = 240b)

 We have increased revenue for taxes by increasing them from the out dated tax brackets of the 1980's. Revenue from the highest tax brackets has increased substantially. At the same time, we have decrease taxes for the poor and middle income tax brackets. We have increased taxes for the rich because the rich have the most to gain from an increase in their taxes. In effect their tax revenue will help themselves because it will lead to more money for officials that can help spend the money on police, firefighters, environmental protection, education, etc. We have decided to have tax cuts for the low income and middle income brackets because we feel that the money will do better in their hands than in the governments hands. A higher tax for those two groups discourages workers from earning more which not our goal.
