Summary:
This article is about rich Germans and how they’re having a petition for the government to make wealthy German people pay higher taxes. The rich Germans don’t mind the extra expense because they say they have “more money than they really need”. They also want to help out
Connections:
A connection between the article and text is the ability-to-pay approach. Even though the government isn’t the ones who are promoting the higher tax demands the rich Germans themselves see the opportunity from themselves for having the ability-to-pay the extra tax expenses. And they’d like to help
Reflection:
I honestly think that this might not be such a bad idea. Even if it might be from a “made a fortune through inheritance, hard work, hard-working, successful entrepreneurship, or investment” person’s point of view then I wouldn’t mind too much. Especially if it’s just a temporary expense or payment to help boost the economy back up with a result of having a better country overall and to maybe even boost up my own income from the new business I’d be attracting. It can be possible but then again it also depends on how everyone else is going to react to the changes and if everyone else is going to be on the same page of thoughtfulness.
