RE: Is the UK Really a High-Tax Country?

Didn't we have much higher top tax rates years ago? Taxing the poor is wrong if they then need benefits to survive. I'm paying a higher rate, but not complaining. There has to be some compromise so you are not driving people away or causing issues with death duties. The stuff with farmers kicked off a fuss, but the idea needs to be sold in the right way. It may get distorted.

I think taxes just need rationalising... it's all too complex, NI/ Income tax should be combined, council tax needs looking at also. What a mess!
NI seems a bit pointless. Each source of income should be subject to one tax.
