    Honestly, their biggest issue is there’s not much wrong with our current tax system anyway. All we need to do is adjust the brackets for inflation, and perhaps tweak the rates a bit. We don’t need a radical overhaul.

      Well I have to disagree with you on this. I think there’s plenty wrong with a tax system that distorts investment markets and heavily advantages people with wealth over those without by encouraging them to stash it in property, where there are a bunch of tax loopholes.

      Whatever the fix for it, I don’t see how it can be fixed by tinkering with rates of income tax.
