Program not running correctly

[D]

I'm new to C++ so please excuse the bad coding but I'm having problems
getting my program to loop. It should continue to ask for more
amounts and calculate them properly but it just iterates once and then
finishes. Any suggestions would be appreciated. Here is what I have:

#include <iostream>
#include <iomanip>
using namespace std;

int main()
{

float percent,baseAmount,taxIncome,taxDue,lowerLimit;

cout <<setw(42) <<"TAX TABLE"<<endl;
cout <<"Taxable Income"<<"\t\t\t\t\t\t\t"<<"Of Amount"<<endl;
cout <<"Over --"<<"\t\t"<<"But Not Over --"<<"\t\t"<<"Your Tax Is

cout <<"Your tax due will be using the Tax Table and then print out

cout <<"the results on the Output Table with your tax due amount.\n";

{

}
else if (taxIncome <=278,450)
{

percent = 36;
}
else
{
baseAmount = 86,699;
lowerLimit = 278,450;
percent = 39.6;
}
taxDue = baseAmount + (taxIncome - lowerLimit) * percent /100;
cout <<"Here is your taxable income "<<taxIncome <<endl;

Remove this 'return', and maybe it will go on...

I'm going to calculate your tax due based on your income.
Your tax due will be using the Tax Table and then print out
the results on the Output Table with your tax due amount.
Please enter your taxable income in whole dollars.
130000
Here is your taxable income $130000
And here is your tax due $35257
Please enter your next amount
