New Proposals Fuel Debate On How We Should Tax The Wealthy

By Dean Knetter

Senator Elizabeth Warren is suggesting a tax on wealth. Representative Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez says marginal income tax rates should go up. Meanwhile, Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell has introduced a bill to repeal the estate tax. We talk about the impact these ideas could have, and how higher taxes on the rich have played out in the past.
