Middle class and wealth redistribution: a numerical model for optimal taxation under a democratic regime (optimization results)

The proposed numerical model simulates the evolution of a virtual population with an incentive and ability-based wage, capital yield from savings, social welfare system and total income subject to taxation. The model allows to obtain an objective criterion to define the middle class based on the marginal percentile income. Meta-heuristics are used to find an optimal taxation given the constrains of a democracy with yardstick vote. This repository contains results of 30 parametric optimizations for one mandate and 30 for two mandates and complements the data in the paper.
