Separate Income Tax Brackets

why are the wealthy/high earners less upset about being taxed? Usually they're the ones furious if they pay more than the poor

socialists, socialism, and equality should go up much more on the High Income Tax and go down for (or at least be unaffected by) the Low Income Tax. Other than that, good mod!

Would you be willing to made this same mod for democracy 4? I really enjoy this mod.

normally tax brackets works like this:
You earn an income in the lower 25% bracket you pay taxes according to that rate.
You earn an income in the middle say 50% bracket you pay the rate for that on any money above the previous bracket. and so on.

example: If you have a regular income tax of 10%, for simplicity the average income is $100k
if you make $100k a year you pay $10k.
now lt's say you get a "wealth" bracket that's anything above average income+50% where you pay 25% and you make $151k a year. You pay $15k in regular tax (10%), plus $250 in the wealthier bracket on everything above the average+50%. You don't pay $37750 as most people think.

These new taxes should increase tax evasion

Poor income tax should increase inequality.

@lil Joshu The "Wealthy" group in Democracy 3 does not refer to the 1%. It refers to the top 25% of earners, just as "Poor" refers to the bottom 25%. The population of both groups is equal.

While a high income tax obviously makes that bracket unhappy, it should also make the other brackets more happy. . "They're paying their fair share."

update please

caps should only care when its high income and socialists should be angry at low income tax
