Content: For example, a 15 percent tax rate could have a significant impact on the standard of living of someone making $20,000 a year, while it isn't likely to have much of an effect on someone making $1 million a year. Conservatives sometimes argue that imposing different tax rates on different people is inherently unfair and completely arbitrary. The amount that constitutes a “fair share” is subjective. Opponents of progressive taxes often propose that a flat tax that imposes the same tax rate on everyone is the fairest way to tax income. References
