Tax the rich, says Amr Adib

Our daily roundup of Last Night’s Talk Shows is on hiatus for the rest of the week, but will return on Sunday, 29 October.

One thing we could not miss out on sharing with you all: On last night’s Kol Youm, Amr Adib’s suggested imposing a tax on anyone earning more than EGP 1 mn a year, with the proceeds earmarked for a special compensation fund for the victims of terror attacks, particularly from the military and police (watch, runtime 2:51).

Cabinet recently signed off on the establishment of a special compensation fund that will be set up once necessary approvals are in place, Cabinet spokesperson Ashraf Sultan told Adib (watch, runtime 3:31).
