Lower the mandatory taxes — or at least stop raising them. Let every taxpayer keep more money in their wallet. That strengthens purchasing power and drives real economic growth.

At the same time, the Riksdag can open a dedicated bankgiro with a specific OCR number where anyone — completely anonymously — can voluntarily pay additional tax on top of what they are already required to pay under the Income Tax Act (IL) and the Value Added Tax Act (ML).

This voluntary contribution would be a pure supplement to the existing tax system — not a replacement or a new system. Those who genuinely want higher taxes can pay as much extra as they like. Those who prefer to keep more of their earnings can do so without being forced to pay more. Everyone wins.

I can promise you one thing: that account would stay almost completely empty.

Because the people who scream loudest for higher taxes almost never want to pay them themselves — they want everyone else to pay. If their convictions were genuinely a matter of life and death, as they constantly claim, they would have backed this solution long ago.

Proof? A motion in 2013/14 proposing exactly this — Motion 2013/14:Sk226 by Stefan Svanström (KD) — was rejected by the Committee on Taxation . Similar proposals from Moderate MPs in recent years have met the same fate.

The gap between words and deeds is glaring.
