You are using a term with a specific meaning – i.e. “progressive tax” to mean something that you want it to mean. It has nothing to do with what you give or get from society.
[/quote]Progressive taxation takes into account income and/or wealth.
An income tax is different from a consumption tax.
I won’t debate with you. But you should talk to some economists.

To me, a fair tax is one where a group who makes 50% of the income and/or owns 50% of the wealth should pay 50% of the taxes (expenses) that make society operate.
That’s pretty much how Americans run their households.
If the wife makes 70% of the income and the husband makes 30% of the income, the wife would pay roughly 70% of the expenses of running the household. When money is pooled, it generally works out that way out of necessity.
