Ok, so you half answered - current rate but fewer deductions. How much will that raise?
Okay, I gave an answer...not "half" one. And I didn't state that I knew exactly what numbers were needed, since I'm not an economist....and neither are you. I'm just going by common sense with the information available to the average tax payer:

So you think Krugman "nails it" but have no idea how much it will raise? That's not much of a place to start for a solution.
So when I answered your question, you then ask me for numbers beyond what was supplied by Krugman and the other links provided here. The numbers given provide what amounts would be available to the national coffers. I'll go with that as a starter....unlike the neocon blowhards who fabricate any and all types of "should be" scenarios as if they are concrete facts on all accounts. Posts #17 and #30.
