Heavy Tax on Large Incomes Debate Shapes Tax Bill
An August Washington dispute over income tax rises ends with Democratic leaders agreeing to revise the tariff bill to tax high incomes more. The plan calls for a 5 percent rate on income over 100,000 rising to 19 percent at five hundred thousand, up from 3 percent above 197,000. The move follows insurgent Democrats warning for stricter rates and Interior party shifts, with further discussion set for a Saturday conference.
