"As of May 2010, the Obama Administration’s proposal to change the total tax paid on capital gains and dividends from 15% to 20% (23.8% in 2013) will see taxes on these sources of income increase approximately 60% for affected taxpayers by 2013. Without government action by 2013, high income taxpayers will see their total tax paid on dividend income alone jump from 15% to as high as 43.4% — or nearly three times the previous rate for dividend income."
