2” FOURTEEN BILLION DOLLARS IN LOST REVENUE THE FIRST THREE YEARS!
Under LeMahieu’s plan, Wisconsin’s income tax rates would incrementally decrease over four years until the 3.25% flat tax rate for all brackets would be implemented in 2026. It would cost the state an estimated $4.958 billion in the first two years, $4.314 billion in the third year and $5.059 billion in 2026 and every year after, according to a Legislative Fiscal Bureau memo.”

I'll gladly pay 8% of my $40,000 income but doubt if the wealthy who have been paying an effective rate of less than 5% would agree to paying 8% of their $10,000,000 income.
What is proposed is a progress income tax with plateaus of tax rates, similar to what we have. Any change by this republican majority will certainly benefit the wealthy to the detriment of the poor.”
