My investment dividends have been taxed exclusively at ordinary income tax rates.

And yours?

BTW, that's a trick question so I'll give you a few seconds to think about it.

It’s an easy trick which is easily solved by a flat income tax.

BTW, my questions are sincere. I essentially want to know how would treat investments versus wages. It seems to me that wages are taxed more because it is easier to tax them more. OTOH, the income from investments often gets put back into investments and economic growth rather than consumption.
