  2. 🚨 New proposal: a 90 % surcharge on any U.S. income above $761 k (the “Essential‑Living Threshold”). It hits only the top 1 % of earners, leaves the bottom 99 % untouched, and could raise ≈ $1.44 trillion / yr—enough to wipe out the $33 trillion federal deficit in ≈ 30 years. The plan bundles tight reporting rules, anti‑avoidance safeguards, and a 20 % credit for investments in housing, clean energy, and job training. #FiscalReform #TaxPolicy #DeficitSolution

  7. @sjwrenlewis long after QE, why is the BoE still paying so much interest on central bank reserves?

    Rachel Reeves could actually take a lesson from Reform's proposals to cut these payments to banks. She could instead fund more investment, without more taxes. Apparently the ECB and BoJ do this, even Ted Cruz in the US now wants the Fed to do something similar.

  9. Rachel Reeves says Tories ‘lied about public finances.’ To fix the £22bn hole, we need to tax capital gains, passive income, the rich, and highly profitable companies way more. buff.ly/3StiSso

  14. Wealth taxes could raise £10bn a year to plug the Tory budget hole. Reforms to inheritance and capital gains taxes can combat the UK’s widening wealth gap.

  19. Late to the party on the German non-paper on EU fiscal rule reform, so most has been said already. What is good is that, in all its Germanness, it avoids rigid red lines. But it also steers the discussion agenda in a direction that risks bringing back the flaws of the old system. My observations: 1/n
