A review of the taxation system, removing the over reliance on the working class

Rejected 9 signatures

What the petition asks

I would like the taxation system to be more balanced, remove the over taxation on the working middle class, bring in line capital gains and close the loop holes that allow the super rich to avoid paying taxes or significantly reduce the tax being paid.
This country is at breaking point, the majority of this country’s wealth is held by a small minority, if the government wants / needs more money then it needs to stop squeezing and taxing the middle class, who are stuck between ever increasing inflation costs, whilst being taxed in every aspect of our lives, the holders of the majority of this country’s wealth can buy themselves out of taxes, which the rest of the working class have to pay for.
