President Biden is sticking to a campaign pledge to hike taxes on those
households making more than $400,000 to help pay for various new social
safety net programs, a Biden administration official told Yahoo Finance Live.
"That definitely has been the red line. It continues to be the red line. It
is a priority of the president," said Council of Economic Advisers member
Heather Boushey, when asked about the $400,000 dividing line.
Biden unveiled his $2.3 trillion infrastructure plan on Wednesday. Dubbed the
"American Jobs Plan," Biden is aiming to invest $621 billion into
transportation infrastructure, including the repair of roads, bridges,
transit and rail. More than $300 billion will be spent to replace lead water
pipes and upgrade sewers, invest in broadband access and improve the power
grid. The infrastructure plan is seen being mostly paid for by lifting the
corporate tax rate to 28% from 21%.
But in the coming weeks, Biden is expected to outline a new $2 trillion plan
for investments in child care, family tax credits and other domestic
programs. This plan will reportedly be funded by lifting taxes on those
households earning more than $400,000 a year, as Biden frequently stated
during is presidential campaign. In a mid-March press briefing, White House
press secretary Jen Psaki confirmed the hikes will target households with
income of $400,000 or more instead of individuals.
Numerous other tax hikes from the Biden administration could also be in the
cards, as Stifel's Chief Washington policy strategist Brian Gardner recently
told Yahoo Finance Live.
"The tax package that was announced as a part of the Made in America tax plan
focuses on corporate profits. What it does is it seeks to readjust our
corporate tax system to focus on making things here in the United States and
to not encourage firms to ship profits overseas or production overseas and to
make sure we have a tax system that's fair and taxes to make these
investments that benefit every family in America," Boushey explained.

And households with the ambition, education, natural talent and drive will
take the money and abilities to another country.

Good leave. If it wasn't for the free money from the printing press from the
last 30 years you would not have all this money. Go to another country where
they will dislike you as an American and only love your money.

Thomas is right. Rich people have options. One is to leave, with their
money and future tax payments.

Then leave. There will always be some educated people from India who will
come over and be glad to pay those taxes.

拜登政府的一位官员告诉雅虎财经直播，总统拜登正在坚持竞选承诺，对那些收入超过40
万美元的家庭加税，以帮助支付各种新的社会安全网专案。
"这绝对一直是红线。它仍然是红线。这是总统的一个优先事项。"当被问及40万美元的分
界线时，经济顾问委员会成员希瑟-布什说。
拜登周三公布了他的2.3万亿美元基础设施计画。被称为 "美国就业计画"，拜登的目标是
向交通基础设施投资6210亿美元，包括道路、桥梁、交通和铁路的维修。超过3000亿美元
将用于更换铅水管道和升级下水道，投资宽带接入和改善电网。基础设施计画被认为主要
通过将企业税率从21%提升至28%来支付。
但在未来几周内，拜登预计将勾勒出一项2万亿美元的新计画，用于投资儿童保育、家庭
税收抵免和其他国内项目。据报导，这项计画的资金来源将是取消那些年收入超过40万美
元的家庭的税收，这也是拜登在是总统竞选期间经常说的。在3月中旬的新闻发布会上，
白宫新闻秘书詹-普萨基证实，加税对象将是收入40万美元以上的家庭而非个人。
Stifel的首席华盛顿政策策略师Brian Gardner最近对雅虎财经直播表示，拜登政府的其
他众多加税措施也可能会出现。
"作为 "美国制造 "税收计画的一部分而宣布的税收方案侧重于企业利润。它所做的是寻
求重新调整我们的企业税收制度，使之专注于在美国这里制造东西，不鼓励企业将利润运
往海外或生产到海外，确保我们有一个公平的税收制度，并通过税收来进行这些投资，使
美国的每个家庭受益。"布什解释说。

滚啊。如果不是因为过去30年印刷厂的免费资金，你就不会有这些钱。去别的国家吧，他
们会不喜欢你这个美国人，只喜欢你的钱。
Eddie>>>
汤玛斯是对的。 富人是有选择的。 一个是离开，带着他们的钱和未来的税款。
Thebuk>>>>
那就滚。总会有一些来自印度的受过教育的人过来，他们会很乐意交这些税。

I don't have an issue with raising taxes on the high income earners to some
degree, but Biden needs to raise his $400K threshold. When you live in a
high tax and high cost of living area like California Bay Area or NYC,
working couples with kids making $400K per year aren't rich; it's more
equivalent to upper middle class in the rest of the country. It's bad enough
that we lost tens of thousands of dollars in deductions with the $10K limit
on state and local taxes, which also had a major marriage penalty since a
working couple doesn't get 2x the limit. And there is already the additional
Medicare tax and 3.8% added tax on net investment income.
我对在一定程度上提高高收入者的税收没有异议，但拜登需要提高他的40万美元门槛。
当你生活在高税收和高生活成本的地区，比如加州湾区或纽约市，带着孩子的工薪夫妇每
年赚40万美元并不富裕，它更相当于国内其他地区的中上阶层。 州税和地税的1万美金限
额，我们损失了几万美金的扣除额度，这已经很糟糕了，因为工薪夫妇得不到2倍的限额
，所以也有很大的婚姻惩罚。 而且已经有额外的Medicare税和3.8%的净投资收入附加税
。

How about capping the amount of dividends taxed at capital gain rates?
Warren Buffets has often lamented that he is paying only 15% taxes & even his
secretary pays a higher rate. That is because Buffet makes tens of millions
from dividends as his primary source of income & only pays 15% taxes. If you
capped divs at $400K at cap gains rate & all divs in excess taxed as ordinary
income we would make Buffet "happy" & have plenty of revenue for
infrastructure from all of the multi-billionaires like Buffet, Gates, Soros,
Bezos, Oprah & J-Z, etc.
不如给按资本收益率征税的红利金额设定上限？
沃伦-巴菲特经常感叹，他只交15%的税，连他的秘书都要交更高的税率。这是因为巴菲特
以分红为主要收入来源，赚取了数千万的收入，只需缴纳15%的税。如果把股息按最高收
益率封顶40万，多出来的股息全部按普通收入征税，我们就会让巴菲特 "高兴"，而且所
有的亿万富翁如巴菲特、盖茨、索罗斯、贝佐斯、奥普拉和J-Z等，都有大量的收入用于
基建。
心得/评论：
新闻内容还好
就是看看底下乡民互嘴还不错玩
护航仔和hater的戏码真的不管到哪边都一样
除了互嘴还有哀号共产党，
另外也有一些乡民提出实际生活上的压力线之类的东西
不过 "加税" 对于真正的超级富豪影响有限应该算是常识了
加税受影响的是社会上作为主力消费者的群体
