Many of the European nations that you Lefists love to champion as how "Socialism" has succeeded tax all income brackets. It tends to make voters think about tax increases when they affect them personally. But you and the Left are like "Nah Brah, it's unfair to make people equal before the law."

It'll never happen because politicians are beholden to the lawyers, accountants and software companies that make billions of dollars from our current tax system.
They don't care if it's fair or not... just that it's completely convoluted and complicated to force people and companies to pay "professionals" to pay their taxes.
Sure, flat regressive taxes are incredibly popular amongst the wealthy who are eager to increase their wealth. A graduated income tax on base salaries and capital gains taxes are how the uber wealthy, whose income is primarily derived from stock options, are how the playing field is even remotely leveled in our country.
Again, they'd on average be charged MORE because there are NO DEDUCTIONS at all.
Of course, there is also the Fair Tax, which I kinda like. It removes all income taxes, and creates a high tax rate on goods sold. IRS no longer worries about individual citizens, but rather, businesses only.
