That's silly.
An individual making $1.5m per year, charged an average income tax of 25% still takes home $1.125m, which is more than sufficient to provide for nearly anything. An individual making $15,000, on the other hand, would find a 25% tax rate leaving them only $11,250.
Yes, it seems unfair to charge the individual making more money more tax, but if enacted in a reasonable manner, it does shift the burden of taxation onto those most able to pay while also causing minimal impact to those already financially struggling.
The world itself is the will to power - and nothing else! And you yourself are the will to power - and nothing else!
