Twenty-five percent is just highway robbery for people who aren’t rolling in money—we’re talking middle earners here, not fat cats. Fifteen percent is what’s fair, and if the richest pay a bit more to make up the difference, so be it. The government can find the money somewhere else if they stop wasting it on their pet projects.

“A 15% tax rate may sound attractive, but public services still need sustainable funding. We reject promises that ignore fiscal reality. Parties promising such cuts without reducing spending would be irresponsible. Lower taxes require efficiency, spending cuts and a balanced budget.”
