As one earns more they "progressively" pay a greater percentage of their income.
The tax in which the percentage paid decreases as income increases is known as a regressive tax. In a regressive tax system, lower-income individuals pay a higher percentage of their income in taxes compared to higher-income individuals. Common examples include sales taxes and certain excise taxes, where the tax burden represents a larger share of income for those with less earnings. As a result, wealthier individuals pay a smaller percentage of their total income in taxes.
it is tha strategy that governs tax increases proportionally with taxable income. the higher your taxable income the higher tax percentage you will pay.
You do not have a set percentage amount that each taxpayer would pay annually in taxes. The tax bracket percentage amounts change for each taxpayers amount of taxable income that they end up having to use to determine the correct amount of their federal income tax liability after the federal income tax return is completed correctly down to the line on the 1040 federal income tax return that says taxable income. Then you would know the amount of your federal income liability for the year and would be able to determine your percent that is being collected from you from your income for the tax year.

A flat tax.
The rich do in fact pay a higher percentage of their income in income tax, because we have a progressive income tax based on six different tax brackets, where the higher your income is the higher a percentage tax bracket you will be in. Depends on which country you're in. In the US, this is not the case.
