After Governor Deval Patrick let his ass get kicked by the scumbag, illiterate fuckwads at the Massachusetts Main Street Fairness Coalition, Patrick made some very progressive and intelligent tax proposals.
The Boston Globe left out an important detail about Patrick’s tax increase proposal: It is not a tax increase for everyone. Poorer earners will see their taxes reduced! It appears as if he is proposing a graduated tax. I took the graph below from Patrick’s FY14 House 1 Budget Recommendation:
The top 20% of earners will have the largest tax increase. Earners in the 40th-60th percentile will not see a significant increase. Earners below the 40th percentile will see a tax decrease.
The media needs to do a better job of reporting the facts! I applaud Patrick for wanting a fairer tax code. Cocksucker asshole rich people will fight this proposal like hell and try like hell to mislead people about it. However, the truth is out there!
