Rejected petition Close the tax loop-holes loved by the wealthy

More details

It is shocking that a cleaner can end up paying a higher percentage of income on tax than millionaires. The same can also be said for big businesses. There has been some talk of addressing this problem, but no concerted effort. Tackling this would not only lead to a greater distribution of wealth, it is also the morally correct thing to do.
