Marius Budăi proposes progressive taxation in Romania, arguing that it could bring €11.8 billion annually to the budget.

Marius Budăi, former Minister of Labor, draws attention to Romania's financial losses caused by maintaining the 10% flat tax rate. He proposes a tax reform with three progressive tax brackets, which would bring additional revenue to the budget and reduce inequalities. Budăi emphasizes that this system would favour fair taxation of high incomes and support the middle class, given the examples of other European countries that have successfully implemented such tax reforms.
