Congress's Joint Tax Committee estimates that raising taxes on income over $250,000 ($200,000 if you're single) will raise $823 billion over 10 years on a static revenue basis. That's only $82 billion a year in extra revenue when the federal deficit in fiscal 2012 was $1.1 trillion. So... This tax increase would only cut the deficit by about 7.5%. |
