Answer: In a regressive tax system, an individual’s tax burden decreases as income increases. This means that you’ll be taxed at a lower rate as your taxable income rises; you’ll be taxed a higher rate the lower your income is. So wealthier individuals will pay less in taxes than lower-income individuals.
