Tax Wall Street earnings like Income Tax and funnel the revenue to fund education, parks & recreation, arts & entertainment, and other cultural activities.
Why is this important?
Wall Street earnings are at record highs, yet they pay a much lower tax rate than the middle-class American's income tax rate. Our education system is crumbling, states cannot afford to keep parks open, people cannot afford to earn a living as an artist, and we are less able to create and enjoy cultural activities. We want to see Wall Street earnings taxed like Income Tax and funnel the revenue to fund education, parks & recreation, arts & entertainment, and other cultural activities.
