If Warren Buffett made his money from ordinary income rather than capital gains, his tax rate would be a lot higher than his secretary's. In fact a very small percentage of people in this country pay a big chunk of the taxes. ↗

The biggest - one of the biggest barriers to driving economic growth is the capital gains tax rate. I propose taking it to zero. ↗

In a perfect world we would bring corporate tax rates down to 25% or less so we can get competitive in the world economy. Ultimately, I would love to see a flat tax. ↗
