Taxing reform to lift wages through incentives
The Washington Post columnist argues Congress should reward high-wage firms via targeted tax cuts and subsidies while tightening rules to curb abuse. He notes past tax cuts failed to boost wages, citing modest gains and stock buybacks, and proposes wage-based tax relief plus stronger minimums and union protections to push firms toward paying workers more and investing in productivity. He cites Walmart and Amazon as examples of higher-wage pilots and warns against offloading costs onto workers or cutting benefits. He adds that policy must ensure compliance by removing loopholes and tying relief to wage growth and productivity gains.
