our red comrades have again identified a new class enemy: the rich and high income individuals are to blame! Initiative with a name "for fair taxes. "Stop the abuse of tax competition they want to create more tax fairness:
After that, the taxable income of 250,000 francs to at least 22 percent and the taxable investment from 2 million at least 5 parts per thousand are taxed.
second pillar of the initiative is the express prohibition on a sliding scale according to the model of the Canton Obwalden: High income and wealth should be taxed more leniently than anywhere deeper. For the Bern National Councillor Margret Kiener Nellen graduated taxes are "a frontal assault on tax fairness and social cohesion."
here would have to say that the Canton Schaffhausen already been taxed since 2004, also gradually decreased:
the first canton to individuals taxed progressively reduced, had Schaffhausen. Since 2004, he demanded lower rates on income from 500 000 francs.

The President of the SP, Hans-Jürg Fehr (a Schaffhauser!) Had at that time, of course, nothing against it - only wanted to do the same as the Obwalden. Yes, yes there are always the others.
would be much more important than more taxes for the responsible use of taxpayers' money. If our politicians to spend less, we will all have to pay less. Interesting how a party that calls itself "klar.sozial" suddenly tried to drive a wedge into society and points the finger at the evil rich - along the lines of: yes, it must pay the other more.
The initiative text is not online yet but I'll bet though: There is no word in it, that the taxes (which of course would like to approve the trick that only other pay to entice votes) for the other 98% will be reduced - on the contrary, will be at least as much or pay even more to when the rich move away. Even so, the SP would have reached one of its objectives: all have become a little more equal. Among them understand our comrades "justice". This initiative makes all the losers.
