Tony earns 80 times of Joe's income (or 80 years of Joe's income in one year or 80 such Joe's income). But Tony's sacrifice is 3.5 times the sacrifice by Joe!!!

There are individuals earning in millions as salary in a year.

As the income increases the percentage of tax decreases!!!

Totally opposite to the meaning of 'Progressive Taxation System'!!!
