Answer:

working less because there is less incentive to be productive

Step-by-step explanation:

Typically when tax rates are raised, people work to find ways to reduce their tax responsibility by lowering their AGI (adjusted gross income). Most folks will do that by increasing pre-tax deductions in their paycheck or finding "tax shelters" or tax credits on their income tax
