Answer: yes it is fair because its a thing

proportional tax

Explanation: In the United States, there are three types of taxation: regressive, proportional, and progressive. Two of these schemes have differing effects on high- and low-income earners. Lower-income people are more affected by regressive taxation than the rich.

Low-, middle-, and high-income earners are all affected equally under proportional taxation, commonly known as a flat tax. Regardless of income, they all pay the same tax rate. A progressive tax has a greater financial impact on higher-income people than it does on lower-income people.
