Congratz England! Nothing incentivizes new business and investment like crippling taxation.
People earning more than £150,000 a year will see a reduction in their take-home pay from today as the new 50p rate of income tax comes into force at the start of the financial year.
In addition to the new tax bracket, announced by Alistair Darling in the Budget last April, high earners will also be subject to a new 42.5 per cent tax on dividends while those people making more than £100,000 a year will have their personal allowance reduced. http://business.timesonline.co.uk/tol/business/economics/article7088582.eceI can hardly wait until the US follows suit. $13 trillion+ debt isn't going to pay itself.
