Tax systems fall into two main categories within the tax code: regressive and progressive taxes. Regressive taxes are those that have the greatest impact on low-income individuals rather than high-income earners. It is an equal aliquot, but that proportionally affects those who have lower income. For example, the food tax takes a larger share of a poor person's income than a millionaire.

 A progressive tax has more impact on individuals and companies with higher incomes and less financial impact on low-income earners. For example, to collect the income tax, you can institute a higher aliquot, the higher the income.

 In sum, a regressive tax on the poorer citizens, as the progressive tax charges more of those who have higher income, which is fairer.

e-lub [12.9K]

Answer:

Language

Explanation:

A language is a system that is a combination of arbitrary symbols that can produce an infinite number of meaningful statements. Language defined by the Britannica Encyclopedia is “a system of conventional spoken or written symbols that has meaning to the participants of a specific culture”. As stated before, we use different symbols to create a word that means something to us. Each symbol has each own pronunciation as well as each word. The most interesting part is that each language is very different from each other. There are other symbols and other meanings to words. In conclusion, we can state that with language we have an infinite form of communication; we just need to learn the rules of each language.
