Well said Brown, for once. 50% would be simply outrageous.

I'm all for it - if you earn over 100k pa then you can afford the extra tax. The caveat is that it is as long as it used properly, i.e. to re-distribute to the less fortunate in society.
It's not that long ago that there used to be a 90% tax band at the very top of the tree

Why should people pay more cause they earn more though!? Do i use any more services as a result of someone earning less than me?
