Jamie Dimon said increasing taxes for the rich could enable tax cuts for lower-income workers. AdvertisementJPMorgan's CEO Jamie Dimon said that rich people should pay more taxes to help struggling lower-income Americans. Dimon, who has previously hinted that he could run for office, spoke about how the Earned Income Tax Credit or EITC could be expanded. The EITC is a refundable tax credit aimed at reducing some of the tax lower-income Americans have to pay annually. Dimon said that "there are so many tax breaks out there that shouldn't be there" for wealthy people.

The Earned Income Tax Credit reduced the likelihood of being in poverty, new research shows. Children exposed to the EITC at early ages were less likely to receive public assistance, such as WIC, as adults. It shows how policies that help keep children out of poverty can have benefits for decades after. How the tax credit can be restructured to assist those who need the benefits the most, though, is murky. These findings suggest, though, that the tax credit improves economic outcomes of both the EITC recipients and their children, as the authors found evidence that these effects drive up income mobility.
