21、marginal rate exceeds the average will be a progressive tax. A: A proportional tax is one where the same proportion is taken regardless of the income of the taxpayer. B: Thus if a worker earned 1000 and had to pay 100, someone earning 10,000 would have to pay 1000 if the tax was to be proportional.
