JulsSmile [24]

I believe the answer is: progressive tax system

In a progressive tax system, we impose different tax rates to the people whose earning reach a certain income bracket. With the purpose of ensuring proper amount of wealth allocation.

In united states, the separation for each bracket would look like this:

Taxable Income Tax Rate

$0 - $9,525 10% of taxable income

$9,526 - $38,700 $952.50 plus 12% of the amount over $9,525

$38,701 - $82,500 $4,453.50 plus 22% of the amount over $38,700

$82,501 - $157,500 $14,089.50 plus 24% of the amount over $82,500

$157,501 - $200,000 $32,089.50 plus 32% of the amount over $157,500

$200,001 - $500,000 $45,689.50 plus 35% of the amount over $200,000

$500,001 or more $150,689.50 plus 37% of the amount over$500,000

Instead of proposing ratification by the state legislatures, the federalist proposal called for ratification of the constitution

Lady_Fox [76]

Federalists proposed that popularly elected conventions should ratify the Constitution rather than the state legislatures themselves doing the ratifying.

In this way, state legislators were not being asked to vote for a document that would have them give up some amount of their own state authority. Also, by having those who attended the ratification conventions be elected by the people in their area to represent their interests, the Constitution would be seen as having the full consent of the people because they had directly elected the convention delegates who approved the Constitution.
