    In the US we do that to some extent but not for the wealthy. Somehow we ended up with upper middle class paying the highest rate, then tax rates dropping as you get wealthy. It’s fair that I pay a higher rate than someone with less income, but very much not fair that I pay a higher tax rate than wealthy people

      Is that actual rates? Or is the looking at different kind of taxes? I was talking about income tax + social security if you get it.

      People with massive company structures can always pay less tax. Or at least less at this point in time. The only way to change rhis if every country works together to fix it
