...economist Lester)) Thurow was talking about that, ((economist Robert)) Heilbroner's talking about that. They do it in Europe. It is, I believe, when you use it as replacement rather than add-on, it does not have an increase price effect to the whole economy. But it is price neutral, and it's a matter of what the market conditions are. And I'm sure that if people can raise the price, they'll do so. And since most shares of stock are owned by the wealthiest people, when you put a 13% tax on business, as this...

The net loss in Treasury receipts, about $30 billion, would be recaptured by raising the top income tax rate to 38% on earnings above $200,000 a year. On average, a middle-class family would gain about $350 a year, a "paltry" 97 cents a day, says Tsongas, who decries Clinton's plan as a "pandering, poll-driven gimmick" that...
