Progressive taxation is a tax system where the tax rate increases as the taxable amount increases. This taxation method aims to distribute the tax burden more equitably, making wealthier individuals or entities pay a higher portion of their income or assets.
Proportional taxation, also known as a flat tax, is a tax system where the tax rate remains constant regardless of the individual's income level. Unlike progressive or regressive tax systems, proportional taxation applies an equal tax rate to every taxpayer.
