IN AN ordinary American presidential election, a candidate who had earned a fortune in business and then paid an absurdly low tax rate would barely raise eyebrows. Americans have long considered wealth something to admire and pursue, not vilify and redistribute. Alexis de Tocqueville said he knew �of no country�where a profounder contempt is expressed for the theory of the permanent equality of property.�

But this is no ordinary election. That so much scrutiny has fallen both on how Mitt Romney earned his fortune (in the ruthless world of private equity) and his tax rate (15%, less than what some middle-class families pay) is a sign something has changed. For that, credit a decade in which the median family in America saw its real income fall by 7%, even as the top 1% grabbed a share of national income unseen since the 1920s (see article), and a level of unemployment that, though falling, remains troublingly high. Not many Americans like the tactics or fashion choices of Occupy Wall Street, but quite a few share the movement�s opinion that the economy is tilted in favour of the wealthy.

And so the rich are now a campaign issue. Barack Obama calls for �millionaires and billionaires� to �pay their fair share�: introduce a minimum tax rate on millionaires and return the top income-tax rate to 39.6% from 35%, and the other 98% of Americans would not have to pay more, he claims. Republicans shoot back that raising any taxes would destroy jobs and business confidence. They think you can fill the budget hole by spending cuts alone; many want to cut taxes further.

Neither side is talking sense. America�s rich should indeed pay more tax; but marginal rates should not go up.

History shows that deficit reduction works best when most of the burden falls on spending cuts. That means that middle-class entitlements will have to be reduced, no matter what Mr Obama tells his supporters. But, just as in every other budget squeeze, a portion must come from higher taxes, no matter what the Republicans say.

Democrats say only the top 1% need pay more; that�s misleading. Others will have to pay too. But more of the increase should be shouldered by the rich who have done so well from recent trends. Technological change and globalisation have sharpened demand for the most skilled workers, in particular superstars, be they athletes or hedge-fund managers, thus sharply increasing inequality. Tax policy has exacerbated this trend instead of mitigating it. George Bush junior slashed top income-tax rates as well as rates on dividends and capital gains, which explains why Warren Buffett and Mr Romney have such low tax rates.

Follow the money

However, restoring the top income tax rates, as Mr Obama proposes, is not the best way of extracting extra revenue from the rich. It would raise revenues of about 0.3% of GDP and do nothing to make America�s grotesquely complicated tax system more efficient. It would be far better to close or limit loopholes and deductions, currently worth up to 7% of GDP, which distort behaviour (by, for example, encouraging people to take out big mortgages) and mostly benefit the affluent. Some deductions, including mortgage relief, would have to be phased out in stages; but many could go immediately. In a similar way, equalising the rates on capital, dividends and ordinary income would make it possible to lower America�s corporate tax rate, currently one of the rich world�s highest.

The result would be lower rates, more revenue and a more efficient and progressive tax system. If that�s where the debate about wealth ends, it will have been worth it.

          which hosted the meeting

          Transport Ministers from 19 European and Asian countries have agreed to continue work on developing transport links they say will act as an economic boon to the whole region. The UN Economic Commission for Europe, which hosted the meeting,, says the unprecedented economic growth of Euro-Asian region is at risk if the current transport situation is not addressed. Lisa Schlein reports for VOA from Geneva,louboutin pas cher.



          The Euro-Asian transport ministers say they hope to reopen the fabled Silk Road that saw merchants and pilgrims travel from China to the Mediterranean Sea centuries ago,franklin marshall.

          According to preliminary estimates, revitalizing this ancient route will take tens, if not,moncler, hundreds of billions of dollars and many years to complete. Still, transport ministers from this region say they are committed to building a rail network that will connect their countries regardless of the time and money involved.

          Barry Cable is director of the Transport and Tourism Division of the UN Economic and Social Commission for Asia and the Pacific.

          He says the Asia-Europe transport project will provide opportunities for increased traffic between these two regions. "What is important is a revitalization, a rebirth of the Silk Road system which will provide an opportunity,, not only for the landlocked countries of Central Asia and Eastern Europe,supra shoes. But it will provide opportunities for the more distant areas away from the sea in both Asia and Europe to benefit from much better transport connections,piumini moncler," he said,franklin marshall.

          The Euro-Asian Transport Links Project, which began five years ago, covers road,louboutin, rail, and inland waterways. Its aim is to improve the poor transport infrastructure, congested ports,louis vuitton, hinterland connections, as well as cumbersome border crossing procedures.

          Nations involved in the project agree these problems are hampering the development of the region.

          UN Economic Affairs officer in Transportation,louis vuitton outlet, Miodrag Pesut, says it takes about 35 to 40 days to ship containers by maritime transport,air jordan. He says once the rail links are operational, that trip will be cut in half,louboutin.

          "In terms of costs, rail transport is still not competitive with the maritime,. But, for businesses, the current dilemma is either delivery is just in time,supra, cutting short this trip by half or still using the railways which are a little bit less competitive in terms of price,sac lancel, but much more in terms of time," he said.

          Huge projects already are under way in countries such as Azerbaijan,louboutin pas cher, Kazakhstan,abercrombie, Iran and China,sac longchamp. China says it is investing more than $12.5 billion to expand its rail system.

          The expense is being borne by national governments. But,sac longchamp pas cher, a number of development banks are making loans and the countries are entering into public-private partnerships.
