Scenario 20-1 The Government Is Proposing Switching from a Progressive Tax System

Scenario 20-1
The government is proposing switching from a progressive tax system in which families pay 15% of the first $50,000 earned, 25% of the next $50,000 earned, and 35% of any income over $100,000 to a tax system in which every family pays 20% of their income less $20,000.
