Didn't the UK have a 97.5% top income tax bracket during the Second World War?
We should bring that back. And make that the normal, peacetime rate this time. >:D
I mean, all those megareverends with their private proselytising jets can clearly afford it.
Yes, but my point is that the rich (and this is true of organizations as well as people) have such a huge profit that virtually no tax rate would inflict a great harm on them, but poor people (and organizations) are so poor that virtually any tax rate could inflict great harm on them. I'm fine with taxing religion, but as you said, there needs to be a level of income at which, below this level, there are no taxes paid.
