[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I may have missed it if someone posted it, but it looks like it's a tax on non-wage income over a certain amount: "a 2 percent tax on the nonwage income of D.C. residents making over $200,000 a year ($250,000 for joint filers). Based on the federal Net Investment Income Tax, the new levy would cover not just capital gains and dividends, but also interest, rental income, royalties and annuities." https://www.washingtonpost.com/opinions/2026/06/08/dc-council-will-vote-tax-hikes-that-would-punish-working-families/ This does not seem completely unreasonable to me, contrary to the contention of the op-ed. [/quote] Total spending by the DC government has gone up 30 percent in five years. Maybe they could just spend slightly less?[/quote]
