Thanks, Chair.
Thank you to all of the witnesses for being here today. I found the testimony quite insightful, interesting and thoughtful, so I appreciate all of your efforts in preparing for today and being here today with us.
Ms. Yetman, it's good to see you again. Thank you for being here. I want to come to you.
Some folks have said to me, “Well, if the government wants to raise revenue and wants the wealthiest to pay more, why not simply increase the tax rate on the wealthiest? Our government has done that before.”
What would you say to that?
