President Joe Biden has recently unveiled a budget proposal that aims to cut the deficit by $3 trillion over the next decade. This ambitious plan includes a 25% minimum tax on the richest Americans which has been a hotly debated topic among policymakers and the public.

The budget proposal is part of President Biden’s effort to rebuild the economy and invest in critical infrastructure while also reducing the deficit. The 25% minimum tax on the wealthiest American is a key component of this plan.

The tax would apply to individuals earning more than $1 million annually and would ensure that the wealthy pay their fair share of taxes. The Biden administration’s budget plan aims to generate additional income through multiple means. This also includes increasing taxes on oil and gas companies raising the corporate tax rate to 28% from the 21% as implemented by former President Donald Trump but still below the pre-2017 rate of 35%. Additionally, the plan includes provisions to allow Medicare to negotiate drug prices.

One of the main goals of the budget proposal is to reduce income inequality in the United States. Currently, the wealthiest Americans pay a lower percentage of their income in taxes than middle and low-income earners. This is due in part to loopholes and deductions that benefit the wealthy. The 25% minimum tax would help close these loopholes and ensure that the rich pay their fair share.

The proposal would also help generate revenue for the government which could be used to invest in critical infrastructure, education, and other related important areas. The Biden administration has proposed using some of the revenue generated by the tax to invest in clean energy and climate change mitigation.

This would help create new jobs and reduce the country’s dependence on fossil fuels. The proposed tax has been met with resistance from some lawmakers and business groups. They argue that the tax would stifle economic growth and discourage investment. They also claim that the tax would be difficult to implement and could be easily avoided by wealthy individuals and corporations.

However, supporters of the tax argue that it is necessary to address income inequality and ensure that the wealthy pay their fair share. They point out that the tax would affect only a small percentage of Americans and that it would generate significant revenue for the government. They also argue that the tax would help reduce the deficit and prevent future economic crises.

One of the challenges of implementing the tax would be ensuring that it is applied fairly and accurately. The wealthy have access to a wide range of tax deductions and loopholes that could potentially reduce their tax liability. Ensuring that those loopholes are closed and that the tax is applied consistently would be critical to the success of the plan. Another challenge would be enforcing the tax. The wealthy have the resources and expertise to minimize their tax liability and could potentially find ways to avoid tax altogether.

Despite these challenges, the 25% minimum tax on the wealthy has the potential to significantly reduce income inequality and generate revenue for the government. Moreover, in addition to the tax on the wealthy, the Biden budget proposal includes a number of other initiatives aimed at reducing the deficit and investing in critical infrastructure.

These initiatives include investment in education, healthcare, and clean energy. The budget proposal also includes provisions to address climate change, strengthen social security and provide relief to small businesses and working families. The proposed budget has been met with both praise and criticism.

Supporters argue that it is a bold and necessary plan to address income inequality and invest in critical infrastructure. They also point out that the plan is fiscally responsible and would help reduce the deficit over the long term. Critics on the other hand argue that the plan is too ambitious and would stifle economic growth. It is also claimed that the tax on the creamy layer would be difficult to implement and can easily be avoided.
